(18,486 posts)If election cheating constituted a coup d'etat, we've been subject to 100s of coups in our history (including Kennedy's presidency).
If we were in a couple d'etat, the Democrats would not have taken back the House in a peaceful transfer, Pelosi wouldn't be speaker, we wouldn't be gearing up for presidential elections that a Democrat could win - unless you think that's an impossibility, which would mean you also think that Sanders, Harris, Biden, Booker, Warren, et al are all either clueless idiots or complicit since, given they know more about government and politics than any of us do, why would they be wasting their time engaging in a futile exercise?
We are NOT in or even near a coup. But if you choose to continue believing such, that's fine - but don't expect to influence me into joining you in such fatalist thinking.
