Trump Floats Renaming Department Of Defense To Department Of War| August 25, 2025 at 7:36 pm ET
In a meeting with the South Korean President, President Donald Trump suggested renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War.
“Pete Hegseth has been incredible with the, as I call it, the Department of War. You know, we call it the Department of Defense, but between us, I think we’re going to change the name,” Trump said. “I have a feeling we’re going to be changing. Everybody likes that. We had an unbelievable history of victory when it was Department of War.”
Trump has referred to Hegseth as the “Secretary of War.”
The remarks highlight a fundamental contradiction in Trump’s foreign policy. At times, Trump says his goal is to be a peacemaker, and his presidential campaigns were defined by his opposition to Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton’s hawkish foreign policy.
