Terrorist groups embrace chance of weakened US hegemony under Trump [View all]
While Donald Trump has cultivated his reputation as a feared strongman, internal chats and online talk across a spectrum of terrorist organizations calling the US government their enemy show that many see advantages to the president-elects incoming administration.
Key to those beliefs are Trumps own promises that once in office, he plans to reduce the global US military footprint and purge the so-called deep state national security agencies of workers he considers disloyal to him.
Part of the Trump transformation, some believe, will also include further alignment with Russia and ending the war in Ukraine to the advantage of the Kremlin and weakening US hegemony globally.
