**Dr. Thompson:** Absolutely. Trump’s victory has sent shockwaves across various sectors, especially the military. The reports of potential furloughs within the Pentagon are quite significant. The mention of dismissing top military officials, including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, signals a shift in military strategy and prioritization.
