Yes, but the system is built with checks and balances and, if respected and enforced, limit the damages a dumb, corrupt politician can do to the country.
Now you get a saber-rattler to hack everything, and immediately there is no limit to anything. Nigger's a bit antisemitic ? There is nothing preventing him to to the veld'hiv raffle. Dude don't want to fight the german ? Nothing prevent him to make France bend over and present to Germany.
Soldiers are paid to fight for the country, not to take over the country when they feel like it.
