The military messed up bad, by failing to secure the president they didn't cut off the head of the government power structure.

It's now a lose lose situation now for the Turkish people. If Erdogan remains in power, there will be a massive crackdown and constitutional rewrites that will result in a even more despotic regime than is already in place requiring a huge amount of bloodshed to get rid of in the future; he will be even more crazy, ruthless and paranoid than he already is. If the military wins there will be a much bigger amount of bloodshed before they manage to seize power.
