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.

    There was a handful of serious Neo-Nazis and militia type guys seemingly looking to kidnap and kill black Democrats among the dipshits today, but imagine how they must have felt when they broke in, looked around and their revolutionary moment was more like the parking lot after a Jimmy Buffett concert.

      After the initial breach, the attempted insurrection basically dissipated into a college football tailgate vibe. And I can say that confidently, because I once was at a tailgate where somebody was murdered and everyone else just sort of....kept tailgaiting.

        Jesus, how does that work. Did people just shrug and say, "well, we already unpacked the cooler"?
