I think if Trump hadn't have backed out at the last minute he could have had a coup today, easily. It would have kicked off a civil war to be sure, but he had a shot.

If he wasn't such a chicken shit idiot he could have done it.

Crisis averted I guess.

      couldn’t Trump just declare martial law and rehold the elections?

      Nah, I think he's done. After this absolutely massive cock-up failure, he can't come back from this.

      Though couldn’t Trump just declare martial law and rehold the elections?

      Not without the support of the military, government bureaucracy and bourgeoisie. He's gone rouge now and crossed the line by disrupting their beloved "political process" so he can't do shit anymore.
