putsch PUTCH noun. : a secretly plotted and suddenly executed attempt to overthrow a government. Hitler tried it and it did not work either.

Approximately two thousand Nazis marched in the city centre, but were confronted by a police cordon, which resulted in the deaths of 16 Nazi Party members and four police officers
Hitler, who was wounded during the clash, escaped immediate arrest. After two days, he was arrested and charged with treason.

Déjà vu all over again?
