That opens the door for military coups in any country with no regard to democratic process. Of course America has been a proponent of military coups in the past, when it suited our purposes. I hope that has changed. If he had lost an election but refused to leave office, that is a time for the military to step in on behalf of the people... I can't think of any other situation that calls for it, aside perhaps when an elected President turns despot and is killing people... but there has been no suggestion of that... and again that would be the military stepping in on behalf of the people at large, not the wealthy to protect the wealth.
