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?

If he becomes President, then he would become the Commander in Chief.

@YourMomsSecretCrush kinda dumb idea. Military would never follow such an order

As the Commander-in-Chief he should be Court Martialled, then face a firing squad.
The charges will many but most damning will be that he dishonored and disrespected those who have died the service of their country.
