"Now that the Democrats have lost this power, Netanyahu has received a second wind. I assume that he will continue to fire all Biden supporters, and will attract people from his clan to government positions," Tsipis said.

“He appointed Gideon Saar to replace Katz, who was the minister of foreign affairs. Saar is Netanyahu's man, as is Katz," he added. "He is putting together his clique, he is putting together his circles, so he will gradually get rid of those protégés of the Democrats."

"Now the head of Mossad, the head of internal security of the Shin Bet and the chief of the General Staff – they all now suspect that they too are under threat of dismissal, they will now unite together," Tsipis argued. "We have a security forces bloc emerging against the Netanyahu bloc."

"Donald Trump, of course, makes his own policies, but it is also important to see who he surrounds himself with," Mehran Kamrava, professor of government at Georgetown University Qatar, told Sputnik.

"During Donald Trump's first term, we saw extremely close relations with Saudi Arabia and Israel," the pundit noted. "Those were the two pillars of America's policy in the region, and I think we will continue to see that."

"I think we're going to see deeper transactional relationships between the Middle East and the United States, deeper economic relationships, particularly in the Persian Gulf," he added.

"The Biden administration, in fact, did sleepwalk into a war, into escalatory conflict not just in Gaza and a genocide in Gaza, but then in the West Bank, in Lebanon, and of course, in relation to Iran," Kamrava said.

"[Donald Trump] and his team are speaking about the heart and soul of what has gone wrong in our country, pointing a confident finger at the crony capitalist state," retired US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Karen Kwiatkowski, a former Pentagon analyst, told Sputnik.

"Those invested in the past 40 years of explosive and militarized growth of Washington have many tools with which to resist and sabotage the Trump agenda, as we saw in his previous term," Kwiatkowski said. "This sector also has the strong support of probably 30 percent of hard-core establishment voters."

"Whether they prevail or not, the Trump team is magnificent, and all else being equal, are capable of truly 'turning the page,' as Kamala's campaign talked about," Kwiatkowski said.

“Trump does not see any advantage for the US to continue spending enormous budgets and political capital in Ukraine. If a deal with Russia and Ukraine cannot be reached, it is possible that Trump will push a ‘frozen conflict policy’ as a sort of damage control... In any case, will have to cover those costs. It will probably be the end of the EU,” Raffone speculated.

“European energy and technology dependency is a fact… Europe must find space for compromise to deal with not only the US, but also with Russia, China and the Middle East. The current ideological positions in the EU Commission, Paris and Berlin are not encouraging,” he said.

"It's not going to be resolved immediately," Rasmussen told Sputnik. "There's a lot of trust-building that's going to have to take place, because we basically left four years of destruction that actually has been going on for a while. But it really took a nosedive in the last four years."

"What you will see is a reduction in funding for Ukraine," Rasmussen said. "He'll also tell [Volodymyr] Zelensky he needs to get serious about negotiations and a realistic negotiation, not some pipe dream, a victory plan or whatever."

"I think for Europe it's going to be challenging, and a lot of European nations, I think, regret the visceral comments and accusations that were tossed out towards President Trump," Rasmussen said.

"Congratulations to President on his enormous win. A much needed victory for the World," he wrote on X.

"This is how he communicated with the wounded there. A man has got shrapnel, he can't walk. He'll say, 'I am going take you anyway.' That's the attitude," he told Sputnik.
