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.
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"?
"ain't no homicide gon' keep me from watchin' my VOLS, man!"
