I guess what I am thinking is that if the top 5 layers of military leadership are all corrupt, and the media and all parts of the government, we are pretty fucked. Not to say that we can't turn it around but it will involve a LOT more watering and success is far from assured.

But if trump shows military the evidence, probably stuff we haven't seen yet, and lays out what has been happening, he can make the case to get most of them on his side. Even if there is still corruption in the bureaucracy.. he can find trusted leadership and give direction from the top of he has the rank and file on board
