An authoritarian typically keeps the military and police well-fed, or alternatively allows them to rob the plebs as they see fit. Otherwise bad things may happen to the emperor.

Unfortunately, Trump is likely to kick the bucket before he sees any blowback of this.

It’s even better because when they do get paid if they leave before their 5 years they have to pay back their bonuses INCLUDING tax.

So they’re kinda paying for the privilege of hunting minorities. Really sick to think about.
