So, is our military going to need to step up to ensure a fair election next year, and also prevent Trump from taking office again? That is, assuming he, A) lives that long, and B) somehow pulls this off. Isn’t that why they are required to swear an oath to the Constitution, and not the President? Does that actually hold any water?
The governor of every state has the right to call out that state’s National Guard in the event of emergencies, and it is my sincere hope the states start to do it pre-emptively, NOW, even via state legislation, so that the NG are already under orders to protect the polls by the time November rolls around.
Without the NG, he has nothing tested and true but ICE, and their numbers are shit compared to the National Guard.
How much worse could it be without any change in course? The military will be on the streets one way or another, either sooner @ the behest of state government or later as trump orders more door-to-door visits, except with murder as the goal instead of detainment to the camps?
As an outsider. The big danger appears to be how your country has also armed your police and now customs people as if they’re military too. Things could start to get very messy very fast.

Look, if the U.S. Military were going to uphold the Constitution he already wouldn’t be President anymore.
The military? Probably not…
But you might get a federal agency already cosplaying as a para-military group to overlook the election and make sure you’re voting correctly. 👍

They’ve spent the last year removing opposition in the military

MAGA would love to see military in the streets murdering people, I’m the polar opposite of MAGA.

Police murder wantonly in our streets already, let’s just throw more gas on the pile and see what happens.
how much worse would it be with a larger, better armed force that has been explicitly trained to kill?

You’re sorta missing the point. Nobody is talking about having the military issuing parking tickets here.
It’s about Trump running for office, and Congress/the courts saying “no”.
Who does the military listen to? Do they obey Trump’s orders to enforce his will at polling places?
they are trained killers, you want them murdering Americans? fucking lunatics everywhere.
You’re just ignoring everything anyone is saying and repeating the same thing.
good luck with your coup
Repetition is truth for certain people.
Until you do. When shit hits the fan it generally comes down to which side the military sides with.

They could start getting nasty a year ago
