“I think the military would follow his orders w/o question.”

Very hard to say. Some in the military could get access to nukes or form an alliance with overseas purveyors of nukes. A mushroom cloud (or the threat of one) over DC would not be unthinkable in the event of an hussein dictatorship.

We have never really had a dictator in the US(unless you consider FDR a dictator), and it is difficult to predict how citizens or the military would react.

Its all about perception and deception. If Barry can make a martial law scenario look like what it really is then theres no question the military will follow along. Yes, he’ll be a dictator at the point but not in those words. If he can pull off a soft coup then the deception is complete. As I said, there will be some few who refuse but you and I will never know it. Most in the military will go along for various reasons but go along they will.
