What IF Donald Trump tries to control the US Military?

I didn't like this interview because it scares me! It's one thing to say that the POTUS has the total allegience of the Military because he's their Commander in Chief..... but what happens (if as laid out in this interview), he insists on breaking the law?

It would be another Trump fail. The military would refuse to follow unlawful orders, or orders in contravention of the Constitution.

@Ontheroad neither of which he made as president. He had the most militarily peaceful administration in decades.you may not like him but facts are facts.

@redredred Try reading the post. The question and my response were about the possibility of that happening if trump is elected.

Doesn't really matter though, he will never see the Presidency again.

@Ontheroad A year from today he will be in the Oval Office and Biden will be headed to jail, both Bidens

@redredred

So you're convinced that the 2020 was stolen from trump even though there's not an iota or shred of proof of such. Let me ask you something, is there anything that trump could say that you wouldn't believe or just have faith that no matter what there's a reason why he says lies so thats good enough for you?

@Vin53 first off, I have not commented on the 2020 election.
Second, I don’t believe 100% of what anyone says, I don’t care what Trump says. I recognize as painfully obvious that my material standing was way better when Trump was president and that Joe Stupid has fucked things up beyond all belief. Fucking Joe Stupid has dragged us to the brink of a nuclear war.
