Intimidating generals, journalists, and political opponents.... [View all]
This is the way he takes control - by fear.
He doesn't really have to take any actions. He just has to make them think he will.
Journalists will be more cautious about what they say and print.
Generals will be obedient to the Commander in Chief.
Political opponents will be fearful that he will throw them in jail.
His enemies will become silent.
Is that the plan?
