        Hey fussy, if it's a coup then are you rethinking your whole fetish for disarming the populace, or are you just being a drama queen today?

        If firing a near-incoherent cop who virtually everyone agreed needed firing is a "coup" to Frummie, he's got no standing to comment anymore.

        It's over. The US government has been taken over by US and Russian kleptocrats, in collusion with GOP. Brought to u by Fox News.

        Bill Clinton was not under FBI investigation at the time, and Director William Sessions was stealing agency funds. Facts bro.

        Doesn't a coup get perpetrated by an opposition?

        No. Most coups are inside jobs - usually the army taking over and giving additional powers to president. Sometimes with help from foreigners

        Coups more often involve arrests and dismissals. Revolutions involve violence.

        I am a French Prof. I study the Napoleonic era. A coup d'état is a blow against the state. It's not a blow against a person.
