That President Trump would rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War is on brand. As Trump remarked at a White House event last month:
It used to be called the Department of War and it had a stronger sound. And as you know, we won World War I, we won World War II. We won everything. Now we have a Department of Defense with defenders.
Yes, defending things such as the U.S. Constitution which get in Trump's way.
However, Trump's repeated proclamation of "no new wars" seems to fly in the face of reestablishing a Department of War. Unless, of course, the Department of War's aim and objective is to wage war against Americans be it sending troops into cities with Democratic mayors as he has done with the National Guard in Washington, D.C. and is threatening to do in Baltimore, Chicago and now New Orleans.
The Department of War would likely also wage war against groups that President Trump doesn't like such as transgendered persons with the DoJ now planning to place restrictions on transgender persons owning guns. Perhaps federal troops would enforce these new rules. In other words, the Second Amendment for me but not for thee or, in this case, they.
The Department of War might very well be called upon to assist ICE with deporting non-citizens or at the very least people who look like non-citizens.
The Department of War might very well be called upon to quell dissent by people who dare to publicly disagree with President Trump and his policies. In which case, this quelling would involve our military murdering American citizens much like a military junta in Africa, Asia or South America.
All of which would be done in the service of worshipping a false G-d. But this is what happens when we choose Trump over America. Trump declares war on America and everything for which it once stood.
