Loving a Putsch – Cheering a “Democratic Neo-Nazi Coup” in Ukraine

27. He did that hoping the leaderless protesters would do what they did.

Go in, see shit was all amok, and then the powers that be decided to take over as soon as possible as to not create a power vacuum. And that looks bad because to do so constitutionally required an ad hoc impeachment. Said ad hoc impeachment (note, the term "ad hoc" is literally in the constitution) was rather trivial when your president leaves the country and leaves behind nothing protecting its administrative buildings from fascists, you see.

Think of it, you're a protester, you see this big government building, the White House for all intents, and the secret service is no where to be found, senators are gone from the senate, it's a ghost town. You can walk in there freely.

The impeachment was the correct course of action because Putin moved immediately. Had there been a power vacuum for longer, it would've been Ukraine basically giving up its government.

I suspect in the end he hoped the hooligans within the midst of the protesters would've razed the buildings, proving once and for all how big of fascists they were.
