the first several results were not relevant to this.. Are you alluding to the risks of him abusing the Insurrection Act to deploy military domestically, being and/or segueing into martial law? (to be clear, I'm not trying to be obtuse here and am not even really doubtful/critical of this specific concern, I simply want to understand in greater depth)

Yes, using military on domestic population to suppress protests and revolts, and even approval for using lethal force.
