Bear in mind that he only really interfaces with the ultra high level people. The mid and low level officers haven't been purged and are at least fairly pragmatic on this kinda stuff. It's a massive convoluted organization and there are plenty of options for slow walking things, at least for a time.

The enlisted soldiers are much less likely to have college degrees and are more likely to be RWNJ true believers. That said trump/hegseth have done a truly amazing job at making them not want to die for this shit.

If someone wanted to try some shit, it would have to come down to how competently executed it was and my gut says (hopes?) the bar is getting high enough I don't think trump/hegseth have it in them.

The military technically removed the President from control after January 6; it is the reason that all former Secretaries of Defense signed on to that letter after January 6 to provide the military cover for responding and likely not obeying Presidential orders.

Now combine that with Trump getting the military trapped in a forever war and appearing incapable of providing decent civilian leadership in the process. Worse, Trump's actions are likely going to lead to a withdrawal from several theatres of war and that's going to lead to a weaker peacetime military. And there is nothing that Trump can give the military that the military actually wants.

Most people are loyal to a paycheck not a person. They'll do whatever whomever pays them to do so they don't lose their job like everyone else.

Civilian life, but they're still here, and talking in the background. Yes. Yes.

This is all speculation in Minecraft, a game I don't play.

Idiocracy isn't a documentary, it's definitely a satire. President Comacho listened to the advice of "not a dumb fuck"

We aren't in Running Man territory..yet. But this scenario can lead to either.

"Choose the Dilldozer or firing squad.. and run! Oh wait, he got the buff from one of the randomly selected rounds of ammunition! He's turbo-mode!!! Now here's a word from our Lord and Savior/Sponsors.!!!"

It could go two ways. Trump wasn't originally a threat, nor was his corrupted cucknest of cronies. So the way I see it, the few that advertise get medals of honor and billy bob buys his bacon from them for the rest of his short life... or nobody does and it's too late anyway.

The only solution is for the majority to carry trump to Boston harbor, throw him in. Fish him out with his soggy diaper and haul him off to an uncorrupted court to judge him and his gaggle of garglefuks into the justices that THEY deserve.

When they eventually threaten the remaining soldiers who haven't already refused with court marshall, this will be the inevitable outcome.

I'm hoping for a hunger games style plot twist here.
