High-ranking commanders are now expected to study MacGregor’s 2003 book, Transformation under Fire, according to Aviv Kochavi, Chief of the Israeli Defense Force General Staff.

On February 17, 2020, Macgregor made a trip to Israel to meet with the IDF General Staff and a number of senior officers to talk about General Kohavi’s current initiative to reshape the IDF for upcoming 21st-century warfighting missions.

The White House disclosed Donald Trump’s intention to appoint Macgregor as the United States’ ambassador to Germany on July 27, 2020.

As part of a significant restructuring of the senior defense staff, the Pentagon said on November 11, 2020, that President Trump had appointed Macgregor to the position of senior advisor to the new Acting Secretary of Defense, Christopher Miller.

At the time, Macgregor supported Trump’s strategy of withdrawing from Afghanistan, which was opposed by the military establishment.

Senator Rand Paul, who called Macgregor a buddy, applauded his appointment. Due to Macgregor’s previous remarks disparaging refugees, the appointment generated criticism. He served in that capacity until January 2021, when Trump departed office.

Macgregor was nominated by President Trump to a three-year term on the advisory board of his alma mater, the United States Military Academy at West Point, in December 2020.

The appointment was contested by the West Point Black Alumni Association and board member Tammy Duckworth, among others, because of the xenophobic claims made against him. In September 2021, President Joe Biden revoked his appointment.
