"SitRep: Will Trump Cyber Hawks Hack Back?; Beijing Mocks, Warns, Incoming President" by Paul McLeary and Adam Rawnsley
Defense analyst Byron Callan was quoted in Paul McLeary and Adam Rawnsley's Foreign Policy article, "SitRep: Will Trump Cyber Hawks Hack Back?; Beijing Mocks, Warns, Incoming President".
Byron Callan of Capital Alpha Partners said in a note to investors Sunday that Mulvaney likely "won't tolerate large defense spending increases without finding offsetting cost savings in the DoD, deeper non-defense cuts, or other revenue assumptions." But – and this is a big but – Callan also told investors that "Trump's tweets and a relatively inexperienced National Security Council raise the possibility, in our view, that a crisis could occur in 2017 that alters defense spending plans and may impinge on deficit discipline."
