A bunch of boomers stealing stuff off Pelosi's desk and posting selfies with #patriot on Instagram is not a coup. It was sad and pathetic, not an attempted coup. If it was, it was the worst one planned in history. A bunch of people show up, mostly unarmed and stand around and take pictures and shout 'mericaaaa a bunch of times.
They had a zero percent chance of taking over the government. Do you seriously think that a bunch Q-cultists that didn't even fire a single shot could take over the US government?
What they did was not OK, but it's clearly not what you are making it out to be.
Those people ARE facing repercussions. Many of them are facing prosecution. We should avoid this type of partisan rhetoric. I know it's a nice talking point to call it a coup and all and helps get clicks, but let's look at things as they actually happened.
The system IS working (these folks are going to court) and hyperbole only leads to more division.
- kadoban 5y agoIt's a coup when it's planned and assisted by Trump and his cronies. The "system" is doing a poor job so far of punishing anyone but the useful idiots.
- chris11 5y agoWhat would have Trump done if the certification was delayed? He certainly wouldn't have made a public statement that Joe Biden won a fair election and would be president on Jan 20. He's still claiming the election was stolen.
