OMFG

You can't be serious. This ****ing egotistical ****tard is really spending our tax dollars for a ****ing pep rally!?!?

How bout it MAGA supporters? You like this?

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s surprise gathering of hundreds of generals and admirals in Virginia next week is being called so he can describe the administration’s reinvention of the Department of Defense as the “Department of War” and outline new standards for military personnel, according to half a dozen people familiar with the planning.

“It’s meant to be a show of force of what the new military now looks like under the president,” a White House official told CNN.

The meeting is expected to resemble “a pep rally” where Hegseth will underscore the importance of the “warrior ethos” and outline a new vision for the US military, said three of the sources. He is expected to discuss new readiness, fitness and grooming standards the officers are expected to adhere to and enforce.

“It’s about getting the horses into the stable and whipping them into shape,” said a defense official familiar with the planning. “And the guys with the stars on their shoulders make for a better audience from an optics standpoint. This is a showcase for Hegseth to tell them: get on board, or potentially have your career shortened.”

What exactly is "thinking like an O3"?

Some of the best officers I knew never made it past O3 because they wouldn't play politics.

This is why my Dad didnt advance past Colonel. It meant going to the Pentagon/DC and he wasnt going that route. Went reserves for a couple years and retired with 26 total served.

How moronic are Trump and Hegseth. Seriously.

Anyway, after wasting all our taxpayers money on a needless in-person meeting, these ****tards want to rationalize the "Department of War" nomenclature. Really? The dumbest of dumb look at Trump and say, "Yeah, that's my guy!"

Trump says "Department of War" will deter wars​

The president praised his decision to adopt the name "Department of War" and said he believes the re-naming will deter conflict.
"The Department of War is going to stop wars," he said. The name of the department can only be officially changed by an act of Congress.
He said his administration will be making more announcements in the future to "fully embrace the identity of the Department of War."

Meanwhile, 500+ hardworking patriots bite their tongue. Oh to be a fly on the wall in the Quantico local bars this evening...

You do realize there is much more to this than just this marketed snippet right?

I'm curious to know what the real reason(s) for this was, something's up.

Just curious.
Has your degree of trumpism remained relatively constant over the past few months/years?
Or has it actually gone up? Down?

We lived through Oabamaism (well the Americans that didn’t kill)

We lives through Trumpism version 1

We lived through Bidenism

We will hopefully live through Trumpism version 2.0

Throw in Wism and this is by far the worst run of presidents in history.

Can’t wait to see the next ism

I didn't ask if you voted for him.
I asked if your opinion of him has............
Remained relatively steady?
Improved?
Gotten worse?

The fact that you are reluctant to answer such a simple question is telling.

My opinion of Trump hasn't changed much. He runs his mouth (including postings) too much, says some really dumb stuff but overall he's doing a much better job this term than his first.

Been a bad run.......

The behavior of so many Ryder cup fans was the perfect encapsulation of trumpism and why it is and has always been toxic.

trumpism has made America a sicker and uglier place in which to live.

My sentiments exactly. He actually learned something from the first go round and isn’t distracted by a Special Counsel.

Indeed… Drunk New York sports fans were always so cordial before Trump.

I like you Luther, but you gotta do better than this. Lol
