"Trump Accountability War Room". Because suddenly presidential accountability is VERY important.

.....wait, what?

Also, using the term "war room" for everything. Peak USA.

what’s the point of a room if you can’t have a war in it

The war room was a joke in Dr. Strangelove, so of fucking course it became a real thing.

It's important to me that y'all realize war rooms are a real thing, have been for centuries if not millennia, and weren't invented for movies or news.

Just copied Alberta Canada. We have had a war room for years now. A war room can’t climate activists I think it is.

Well calling it a Revenge Room would have been too obvious.

It's literally just a section of a news website. A website run by people dedicated to holding the rich and powerful accountable.

I can only assume you're a Trumper, mocking the mere concept of accountability, and throwing shade at people opposed to the president-elect.

If that's what you got out of his comment, maybe you should stick to the meme communities, then at least you can pretend your not understanding is just a bit you're doing.
