Trump Proposes Renaming Department of Defense to Department of War

Former President Donald Trump has announced plans to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War, pushing for a return to this historical title as he believes it sounds stronger. During recent statements, Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the current name, indicating a desire for a more aggressive stance in U.S. military policy. He suggested that this name change could happen soon, and he has signaled a willingness to bypass congressional procedures typically required for such a significant rebranding. Critics have raised concerns over this proposed shift, highlighting the potential implications it could have on U.S. military strategy and public perception.
