Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump predicted Wednesday night that there will be changes within the group of generals in the United States military, openly floating replacing some if he is elected in November.
When pressed by NBC’s Matt Lauer about his plan to defeat the Islamic State, about which Trump has been unapologetically vague, the candidate said that his strategy could consist of a mix of his plans and what the generals come back with after a 30-day window. In the past, Trump has discussed having a “secret plan” for how to defeat the Islamic State, but announced the decision to convene military leaders to come up with a plan in a speech earlier Wednesday in Philadelphia.
