on the Dems being unable to drive a counter narrative (safe bet, that). They counted on the credulous boobs of Amurica to lap this shit up. This was (and is) the collusion with our enemy Russia to take down the US so that instead being a bulwark against Putinism, we are an amplifier of it.

Not to lay my cards on the table but I think this narrow focus in online discourse on who deserves to be rewarded really elides the actual societal value of the education system (teaching members of society important stuff that it's valuable for them to know)

Even Republicans aren't into the "Department of War" rebranding. Only 42% approve, which is low in such a polarized environment.

Plus Democrats and Independents are solidly opposed.

Americans want a professional, not unhinged military.
