I do not see a downside.

You will if Hillary is elected president sometime down the road. Do not grant the Federal Government any powers today that you do not want Hillary (or someone worse) to have in the future. Do you think a Bill Clinton would have abused this kind of power? Can you say "Screw the election, I control the military and I am going to keep on being President, for the children."

I am in favor of using the military on our borders to keep ailiens from entering, which I view as protecting our borders. I am not in favor of using the military for any domestic police action including fighting the war on drugs.

You read my mind. We must not allow the government to take any power that we would not want to exist under the power of Hillary.

Soldiers are not policemen. Remember the confusion of roles in Mogadishu. Soldiers as meals-on-wheels!
