Reminder: using the military to implement a mass deportation campaign is not only illegal and immoral, it would severely degrade military readiness and professionalism, and risks turning the military into a republican guard or a party-army.

Couldn’t it also result in mass mutiny as well? Typically it’d probably fall under “rightfully disobeying an illegal order” but Trump will probably make a mockery of what‘s legal and illegal. He’s in a weird position where he definitely doesn’t qualify for office (14AS3) but idiots voted him in.
I mean it looks like “morons voted a traitor who wants to sell the country to the highest bidder, tear the US Constitution to shreds, make himself into the despot the Declaration of Independence was made to oppose”. At some point he’ll be seen as a domestic enemy by enlisted, wouldn’t he?
They play Fox "news" at the bases. Are you sure they won't fall in line like the politicians, media and billionaire class have done?
He is pretty much dictating what happens in DC and around the world and he hasn't even taken office yet.
Voting for Trump and getting ordered to shoot protesting American citizens in American cities are two very different things mentally. Also iirc its a duality of MAGA and non-MAGA? Whatever is coming won't be pretty for the army's cohesion, to say the least
Since Trump has that air around him where people think he's just lying about this or assign him something he doesn't believe in. That air broke extremely quickly once he got into office last time, so the military enlisted might slide back into opposition/dislike once he fucks things up again.
"He thinks we should go after domestic enemies, but he isn't serious about it" and "oh shit I have to shoot other Americans" are two extremely different things.
I suspect that his disqualification will be remembered at the exact moment his rule becomes inconvenient to certain people. Institutions that can't keep him out also can't save him.
I think that democrats need to remember how these parasites bulldozed our lives and are fine with kids getting shot up in schools for their pathetic superiority complex and start bulldozing for the right causes. Not as spite, but as “I had enough of your shit, go to your fucking corner brat.”
Much of the population would turn against the military and turn some of the military against each other.
If someone wanted to destroy America I can't think of anything they would be doing differently than Trump is doing now.
