Since incoming President Donald Trump announced his campaign for reelection, the public has weighed and dissected the merits and shortfalls of his aims for the military.


But what has been missing is how these promises or inferences might come to fruition and what challenges they may face on their way to implementation.

In this episode, we spoke to two experts with collective decades of experience in analyzing military policies, both foreign and domestic. We talked about five promises – or policies floated in the media – that will likely see early headway in Trump's military.
 
Using the active-duty military for mass deportations.
Rollbacks on transgender troop policies.
Replacing "woke" generals.
Restoring Confederate base names.
And keeping the military "out of wars."

Radically?  I think not.  Take it back to being a military instead of a glorified social club, I think.

Agree:
Rollbacks on transgender troop policies.
Replacing "woke" generals.
Restoring Confederate base names.

Disagree:
Using the active-duty military for mass deportations.
To me, this is a job for the National Guard.  Well armed.  Ready for resistance in blue states

And keeping the military "out of wars."
Isn't this the purpose of the military?  With a strong military our enemies will think twice before engaging us.
