    On a scale of 1 to 4, with 1 being "no worries" and 4 being "freakout time," how worried should we be of a Trumpian coup?

        I'm at 4 because he's still trying and what's he's done at the DoD + Russia's hack. A lot can happen in a month.

        I mean there's one on right now. It's just not being done by smart people. So, 4 and 2.

        He has no scruples, feels fine taking what is not his, and has demonstrated this several million times. There are no guard rails to stop him, as far as I can tell. He’s isolated, angry as hell and willing to do what it takes.

        It's still fucked-up, to be clear. I'm appalled at these reports. He might do a lot of crazy things. He's got a month. But NONE of those things result in him remaining in office.

        2. It was fortunately not a close election. If it was, this may have worked.

        Not worried about it working, so much as the potential for collateral damage

        The President of the United States is sitting in the White House seriously discussing a coup with a bunch of really right wing cultists. And the GOP seems fine with it. Whether he can do it or not, people should be freaking out.
