## Resource

Recent comments by Donald Trump about military policy, the idea that he "wants his threat capability maintained" generally aligns with his longstanding position that the United States should preserve a strong deterrent. In that context, "threat capability" usually refers to maintaining credible military strength—including conventional forces and the nuclear deterrent—so that adversaries believe the U.S. has both the ability and the willingness to respond if necessary. Supporters argue this helps deter conflict through strength, while critics argue that emphasizing military threats can increase tensions and the risk of escalation.
