This is a military dictatorship, they're not going to make a coup.
Maduro may be a civilian, but when you take a look at the people that hold all the ministries and important positions in the government, you see they are all former military that were put there by Chavez. This was his plan all along, the problem is he died.
The military has every incentive not to let the government fall. They are the ones controlling everything and every single bit of corruption must pass through the military first. They control the currency, industry and even the drug trafficking.
You think they are gonna let the government fall and possibly be tried and be brought to justice in the
future?
Unfortunately, the only way out I see for the country is an Ukraine or Egypt like situation where the military basically kills people in the streets for a month or two and then some kind of agreement is reached where they are granted immunity from justice. Or they take off their masks and just declare a formal military dictatorship.
