      they dont fear confrontation because they think they have the means to jail, out-shoot, and out-kill the “Left”

            My sweet summer child. Part of the oath says you will obey the orders of the President. Soldiers are also highly conditioned to obey orders unquestionably. There’s no time for a moral debate on the battlefield.

              Which is why he cleared out a lot of the higher ups. If any loyalty to the constitution still remains though, the current higher ups should reject the president’s orders that go against it, meaning the lower level soldiers will still be following orders by also rejecting unlawful orders.

              I’m not super hopeful but that’s how it’s supposed to work.
