I tend to call a failed murder attempted murder. I think the distinction is important due to the difference in outcomes. One someone is dead the other does not result in death. I think insurrection and coups are similar. One you have a toppled government the other you do not. Things aren't that bad. I really small number of people did something stupid. The country is divided and has some healing to do but it's not over yet.

Right, and attempted murder is still the same sort of thing as murder, just without the success. Claiming that a failed insurrection was "nothing of the sort happening" is wrong. It absolutely was something of the sort. > Things aren't that bad I didn't say they were. I said we were very close to them being very bad. There's a big difference.
