Fears grow that Trump will use the military in ‘dictatorial ways’ if he returns to the White House
Now, bracing for Trump’s potential return, a loose-knit network of public interest groups and lawmakers is quietly devising plans to try to foil any efforts to expand presidential power, which could include pressuring the military to cater to his political needs.
“We’re already starting to put together a team to think through the most damaging types of things that he [Trump] might do so that we’re ready to bring lawsuits if we have to,” said Mary McCord,...
“There are an array of horrors that could result from Donald Trump’s unrestricted use of the Insurrection Act,” Blumenthal said in an interview. “A malignantly motivated president could use it in a vast variety of dictatorial ways unless at some point the military itself resisted what they deemed to be an unlawful order.
Is a military coup being orchestrated in case of a Trump victory? Could there possible be a military takeover of the US government? That is what NBC News is indicating.

The irony is that Trump has already served a term as president and did nothing to justify the current alarmist fears being spread by the democrats.

I agree that his time is short but think it will most likely be natural causes.

Well, there was that one little bitty old incident where he tried to stay in power after the Electoral College told him he had to leave.
He wasn't successful the first time, but he's setting up to take another run at it.

He's in too good health for anything natural to take him out between now and November. No! if they can't figure out a way to steal the election again, they will kill him.
