... US Gov't has all the logistics to forcefully take over and maintain absolute control ...

Right ... the numbers don't really add up. The bastards might well try, and they might include attempting to deputize State and Local LEO ... some of whom will say "GFY". It could get really interesting; Fedzilla doesn't hold all the cards.

... the numbers don't really add up.

When the Allied Forces in WWII had moderate control of Europe they were supported by the WHOLE Industrial might of the United States and it took the most massive amounts of effort from most of the populace working, to the rest rationing back their intake, and even having kids go around getting scrap metal for the "war effort".
The conspiracy theorists who think that the US Government has the ability to logistically support a "tyrannical take over" of the whole country are idiots.
The peoples of the USA (at least 55% of them) would both say GFY and fight back. There would be no WWII style industrial complex to support a "take over". Stashed stockpiles might last weeks but the logistical aspect of such a thing means that it would never be successful.
Whats a more likely scenario than country-wide martial law and civilian extermination?
Answer: A simple coup/overthrow of a tyrannical government. Ultimately an unconstitutional presidency would fail to have ultimate control and a large portion of free representatives, backed by a large portion of the US Military, would simply walk into the capitol/white house and oust the unconstitutional president and cabinet....etc etc.
THAT, would happen before the whole USA was over ran by storm troopers.

Local and even Federal LEOs are citizens of the areas they have jurisdiction in. They live there.

I don't think Idaho would tolerate another Ruby Ridge, nor Texas another Waco...and those responses would be much more than grass roots. Sherriffs in various locales have already made this clear.

The sad thing is there are big cities and other states even that would invite in Federal tyranny.
