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.
I think that's like assuming you can roll a dice 5 times and it comes up a 6 on each of those roles. Basically everything has to go right for Trump for this to work and if one thing doesn't then it fails.
But the biggest reason why this would NEVER happen... Trump "siezing power" is 100% in opposition to the wishes of capital. They are all on board with Biden and capital effectively controls both political parties and the military rn.
Hitler seizing power was in opposition to national capital. He was appointed to appease the petit bourgeoisie. The same class the folks taking selfies with pigs today represent.
Counting on libs to control fash is a fool's errand. Scratch a lib and all that
Was it though? I thought the Nazi party had extremely close relationships with all the major German corporations at the time.
Ah fair enough. We better not wait for them to do the same here. Fash in Seattle have a cabal attempting exactly that more or less, wish I was joking
this is the correct take.
i guess what I am trying to say though is that if Trump was anything that resembled an effective political strategist he would have seen this coming and could have seized the moment.
Tbh, if Trump was any kind of political strategist he'd be calling shots in the background, not serving as a figurehead
Idk some folks wanna Murdoch and others wanna Burlesconi
