The military has physical power vastly exceeding that of any other possible actors in our rapidly-approaching end-game. As opposed to the gangs of idiots, the military has the power and competence to take over the country in a 'martial law' scenario. Now imagine Flynn showing up at the Pentagon with orders from Trump making him Secretary of Defense. If other leaders wanted the military to stay out of the election, they would have to tell Flynn they weren't taking orders from him. But his appointment in an 'acting' capacity would be perfectly legal (though his orders might not be). One way or the other, the military is suddenly in it up to its neck.
