It's never been about defeating those things, it's about expanding power using them as an excuse.
Exactly.
- War on Drugs - reduce minority voice in government
- War on Terror - PATRIOT Act, or whatever its current incarnation is
- War on Woke - probably government access to medical records and/or privacy generally, but I guess we'll see
War on drugs - excuse to further oppress blacks and mexicans (successful)
War on terror - excuse to violently expand influence in the middle east (mission accomplished)
War on woke - đ
- War on Woke - war on privacy and access to undesirable (to the state) information

His one job was to create profit for weapons manufacturers and he did that job very very well

Just like the "war on drugs" was never about stopping drugs, this was never about stopping terrorism.
When you wage a war on an enemy, you win when the enemy is dead. When you wage a war on an idea, there's no final end point.
No, man! He said war OF Terror...

Mate, I was traumatised when Dragonball z and Pokémon were interrupted before school and this dude was on all the TV stations.
Nothing has been any good sense.
Gonna be honest, the idiom/meme "had one job" is almost never correct or appropriate and the role of president is certainly a situation where it does not apply. I find it irksome, most of the time, when people say/type it, without actually thinking things through and applying it appropriately. Don't care if it is an unpopular opinion because it is a fact that it is used incorrectly the vast majority of the time and haters gonna hate, only true appreciators gonna appreciate.
