    I get that the military is a heavily conservative organization, but I feel like they’d be surprised that the military wouldn’t just let them walk into bases and take orders from them

      It turns out that the military isn’t actually as right-wing as everyone thought because, unlike the police, when push comes to shove, they will defend the country. You can’t count on the police to do the same. You hear lots of moaning and complaining about politics but military members WILL follow their leadership and their leadership will support the country.
