He does realize that he will not have the protections of his office during an illegal 3rd term … right?
If he stays in office past his term then everyone that has sworn to uphold the constitution is obligated by oath to remove him by any means as he becomes a domestic threat to the Constitution. This one is a clear and unconditional constitutional dealbreaker.
He’s using the military without congressional approval to blow up South American fishing boats.
He’s deploying federal forces, including military forces, to US cities without a war or suspension of posse comitatus.
Under his orders, ICE has detained thousands of Americans for no reason.
How many threats does he have to pose before the generals say it’s time to stand up and defend the constitution? What mechanism is there that actually allows that?

It’s not like there’s some kind of shortage of arch-conservative military leadership. The Air Force is straight up Christian Nationalist and the Marines are stuffed full of FOX News dweebs. Half the Navy officer’s corps is angling for a booking on the Joe Rogan Podcast to talk about how they were the ones who killed Bin Laden or dropped the bomb on Qasem Soleimani or whatever.
“These corrupt American politicians are out of control, I can’t wait until we get someone like Muammar Gaddafi or Abdel Fattah el-Sisi or Charles de Gaulle in charge” is a real fucking Be-Careful-What-You-Wish-For take.

I dare you to cross this line! Now this one! How about this line? Another line, you wouldn’t dare do it
