    he fell into it ass-backwards because he's a savant at being famous, but it won't help him pull off a coup

      yeah i'm still increasingly convinced he just did it to bolster his name so he could spin up a right-wing media empire to challenge Murdoch or something but somehow fucked up spectacularly and ended up here

        When he ends up not doing a coup, are you gonna take the lesson and stop making hyperbolic predictions or are you gonna keep doing it anyways? Because I don't see many of the "leave America while there is time, there will be mass violence and war after the election" really taking to heart the lesson. There is literally 0 reason for a coup to happen other than "Trump wants it" which isn't good enough.

          He's transparently trying to do a coup and mocking him as incompetent instead of taking it seriously is how you end up with him winning again.

          I don't think he can do a coup. I don't think he has the support. He's still trying, and that's still a really fucking bad thing.

          Is Bill Barr just a savant at being famous?

            He's not "trying" to do a coup. That's not how you "try" to do a coup. It's not a serious effort and it's absolutely nothing to worry about. It doesn't matter if he is competent or not. A coup does not happen just because some moron wishes it, even if they are president. Trump probably knows it. That's not why he is doing all the noise.

              No a coup takes planning. Moving your peple into position. Drumming up support. maybe manufacturing a narrative to try and give it some legitimacy.
