WASHINGTON — Despite the controversy and polarization of this year's election cycle, U.S. military members and defense industry officials are hopeful that no matter which candidate is elected President, he or she will have their best interests at heart, sources tell Duffel Blog.
Whether Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump ends up in the White House, many say, unending global warfare should continue to ensure the job security of servicemembers, civilians, and contractors alike. Some experts even predict a state-on-state war with another major power "like in the good old days."
“Obama had us worried for a while because relations with China and Russia were really cooling off,” said Lionel Snead, a defense industry expert. “Luckily both candidates seem willing to escalate a bit.”
