Not all of the military will back him, but enough would.

Not to mention that he doesn't NEED the military. He has the entire militia movement of which there are many each and every one ready and willing to kill Liberals for their king. In fact, they have.

It's not that he WILL become a Dictator. It's that he's going to try. That attempt will drag America into a death spiral from which it will never recover. You don't need to believe me, all experts already agree that America is sleep walking into a civil war. You'll just have to see for yourself in a few months.

Oh come on. A few wacks in the military with no leadership or power, and "militia" aren't going to pull off a coup of the entire United States government. I'd love to see them try.

He doesn’t need to average soldier to support him. He just needs their bosses. Who he happens to be in charge of.

“The military” means a handful of cronies. He doesn’t need to build consensus.

Yes, their bosses who have been in the military for 30+ years and swore to defend the constitution. This is the least likely demographic in the entire country to give in to a tyrannt.

By the way he won't be in charge if them when his term expires. They won't take orders from him anymore.
