    Cool cool cool cool.

    “Ok troops, we’re taking this list of registered Democrats and killing them all.”

    Military court:

    “Are you insane? Of course that’s no-…”

    (Judge removed)

    “New judge, can you take Trump’s dick out of your mouth so you can rule on this?”

    “Yep. All good here. That was a lawful order, hope you carried it out completely.”

      As ridiculous as that sounds, yes, this is to be expected. They already weakened the military courts, but I don’t know the extent, just remember there were some articles about it earlier in the year. Also, I don’t know if history has an example of any large groups of military refusing an order, not counting coups.
