Yep.

So they call it a war, instead of using Harry Truman’s description for Korea. Or a federal emergency, or or or.

I don’t think it will happen, but as I said above, interesting exercise of the brain.

So true. Don't forget too that 90% of the military come from the very people they would be asked to put down. Desertion would be a major problem as would outright refusal to engage.

Again, all hypothetical but a good reasoning exercise
