Senior leaders are very politically correct, and will do what the whatever the CINC tells them.
What about the enlisted men and women? Do you believe that if the Liberal Messiah staged a coup, they would simply obey orders to shoot fellow Americans? That would be necessary for a coup to be successful.
I believe the military would fracture at least three ways: support the Liberal Messiah; support America; desert.
Like I said, “they” (the enlisted as you put it) will follow the orders issued to them That is the result of training. You’re dreaming if you thing the troops analyze missions or orders beyond what is required to accomplish their tasks. They simply don’t have the luxury of time when it comes to preparation and execution of the mission.
