You don’t fuck with food, family, or pay. Everyone in management knows that. Can’t keep your workforce happy if they’re hungry and deployed too long.

This might not _cause_ a coup, but it helps increase the odds that the military does not support Trump when _he_ tries to do a coup.

Again.

(Hence it was done extremely well and laid the foundation for the systems you describe.)

(1) Not overthrowing the (U.S.) govt.

(2) Logistics. (Lots of minor screw-ups, I hear, but ultimately successful at a global scale to both support and end lives

I can only assume that as MAGA was cutting out the numerous people and policies related to number 1, they also destroyed many plans and capabilities for number 2.

So wait, they've lost the ability to feed the people with guns and the training to use them? That's not likely to end well.

It's just not violently masculine enough to command their attention.

Oh wait, that’s probably not a great thing to do on a modern battleship full of explodey things, is it?

The ONE THING that was always guaranteed is, the military will feed you. I have had hot food delivered to us in some bufu COB out there, in between occasional mortar round hitting.

Now, under Turd Reich/KKKegseth they won't even FEEDthe troops right.
