      If there were a coup attempt, the proper response would be for people to organize and prepare to take to the streets. But the stuff so far, although bad and anti-democratic, still seems like typical Trump buffoonery rather than a coup.

      Let the people decide. Is what we're seeing a coup or typical Trump buffoonery designed to assuage his ego?

          I mean, it can be both. It doesn’t have to be well-executed or successful to be a “coup”

          feels like the latter, but with the potential to steer into the former

          I think we might be seeing a coup ... that will end up looking like buffonery when several necessary pieces don't do as told. Trump routinely takes both sides of an issue, so why not have a coup that doesn't end up a coup?
