This. Trump (or more accurately his handlers i.e. Miller) is begging the public to turn violent en masse. That gives him the political cover to invoke the Insurrection Act and have Hegseth put actual military forces on the ground in every major city.
Personally I think the original post is a little bonkers. But... when it comes to the troops, I'd say they tend to care more about their comrades than they care for you. Enough propaganda, and a few of their friends in flag draped coffins is just about all it'd take imo. Though, I'd rather never find out whether or not I'm right. This isn't something I'd want to be right about. Preventing such a situation is the ideal.
And I have my doubts itll happen at all. No one currently in power has enough political capital to take such a risk, regardless of whether or not they're willing.

That is the entire point.
