Are they now controlling the military? Have they taken control of the media and silenced their critics? Have they rounded up in a sudden sweep all those in government who might oppose them? Are they pushing out prepared messages about how this is being done for the benefit of the people? Have they actually done anything involving taking control and establishing themselves as the legitimate authority, deposing the existing government?
If this is a coup, it's the shittest coup ever, being done by the least competent coup conspirators I've ever seen.
- kadoban 6y agoIt doesn't stop being a coup attempt just because they suck at it. A stupid criminal is still a criminal.
- jandrese 6y agoOne does wonder if there is any kind of endgame strategy here. Are they going to occupy the Capitol building until Jan 20 so they can claim that Biden isn't president because the vote didn't happen? This seems a bit spur of the moment. Also, didn't President Trump say he was going to lead them to the Capitol building in his speech? Where is he?
