Subject: Re: TRUMP: Military Never Fought to Win
When the draft dodger, Trumpedo, who said he considered himself “a great and very brave soldier” for battling the possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted disease in the 80s signed his umpteenth executive order to change the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War, he said that after WWII “we were very strong, but we never fought to win. We just didn’t fight to win.”

He should have gone back even further, to when the Department of War was called the “National Military Establishment”, fondly abbreviated as "Enemy".

From HCR today:

Today President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order to rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War, although the 1947 abandonment of the Department of War name was not simply a matter of substituting a new name for the original one. In 1947, to bring order and efficiency to U.S. military forces, Congress renamed the Department of War as the Department of the Army, then brought it, together with the Department of the Navy and a new Department of the Air Force, into a newly established “National Military Establishment” overseen by the secretary of defense.

In 1949, Congress replaced the National Military Establishment name, whose initials sounded unfortunately like “enemy,” with Department of Defense. The new name emphasized that the Allied Powers of World War II would join together to focus on deterring wars by standing against offensive wars launched by big countries against their smaller neighbors. Although Trump told West Point graduates this year that “[t]he military's job is to dominate any foe and annihilate any threat to America, anywhere, anytime, and any place,” in fact, the stated mission of the Department of Defense is “to provide the military forces needed to deter war and ensure our nation’s security.”
