        If the military opposed him and Trump hired his own personal lynch mob army that'd unironically be one of the best outcomes you could hope for

        Imagine the US military and white militias killing each other in the streets, fucking christmas on a silver platter

        In reality though that'd never happen because the military wouldn't oppose him

          Oath keepers vs active duty soldiers with the full weight of the federal government.

          Sounds nice but it’s really a horrible notion.

      I think when push comes to shove though, Trump is the Commander in Chief™ and blind loyalty will lead to troops supporting him in that moment, especially if the election outcome appears close (whether or not it actually is). Especially if Democrats grow stones and actually try to force him out.

        In the short term you're right. The military isn't going to act, not until after supreme court decision.

        Even after that... It will be weeks/months of organisation and secret meetings for a military coup to actually occur on US soil... If they even decide to do it which is a big IF.

        The near-term would be a defaulting to Trump being commander-in-chief and he'd be defended in his position as a result of supreme court backing.
