Yes, Trump is trying to stage a coup. But don& #39;t despair! He keeps running his mouth about what he intends to do and how he intends to do it. That gives the resistance the tools they need to defeat him. https://www.salon.com/2020/09/24/trump-just-cant-keep-a-secret--especially-when-it-comes-to-his-plans-to-stage-a-coup/">https://www.salon.com/2020/09/2...
There& #39;s no use in hiding behind euphemisms. Trump is planning a coup. We know this, because he keeps talking about it. The good news is that we no longer have to waste time trying to persuade people of this — we can just quote Trump directly.
There& #39;s a reason that most attempted coups are conducted in secret. Pulling off a coup is hard! (At least half of efforts fail.) You need that advantage of surprise, but Trump, ever the narcissistic idiot, gave that up. Now it& #39;s on us to believe who he has shown himself to be.
One reason that it& #39;s hard to get pundits to see what& #39;s right under their noses, that Trump is trying to steal this election, is their entire careers are built around certain assumptions about how things work that Trump has torn apart.
But again, there& #39;s good news here! Trump& #39;s motormouth boxes people who would rather live in denial into a corner. It& #39;s really hard to pretend he& #39;s not trying to steal the election when he goes on TV and outlines his plans to steal the election.
