Maybe this is true, it’s very possible they facilitated the control to civilians.

By going this route they would be able to greatly diminish ppl’s ability to be able to call what’s happening a military coup, it would also keep us in line with American tradition. We know the military can seize control and take command of the country, but only under the most egregious situations and that was designed for “short periods of time”. This doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be playing a very important role, it just means they might believe it’s what’s best for the country.

If you’re here, than there should be zero doubt that the military is ALL OVER this thing. No one else has the budget or the mandate to pull this off. No one else has the strength through force and technology to make this happen. No one else has an independent judiciary system to handle this shit-show.

But, are they the end all with the final word, yes, “if they want to be”.
