"They gave me a list of names and said, 'Sir, you can pick the name you like, sir,'" Trump recalled...

Trump paused his remarks in Hebron, Ky., on Wednesday to comment on the military operation against Iran, dubbed "Operation Epic Fury."

“Is that a great name or what?” he asked a crowd of his supporters.

“They gave me a list of names and said, ‘Sir, you can pick the name you like, sir,’” Trump recalled, mimicking the stern voice of a military commander.

“And they gave me like 20 names,” he said. He picked the one he liked best.

As for the war's progress, he added: “You never like to say too early you won, but we won."

isn't that how parents handle their kids? Control their "decision" while making them feel like they made the choice by offering them a narrowed range of options?

A toxic hypermasculine name. He's compensating for something. Let me ask Stormy Daniels, she might know.
