The funny part is you are still quoting an article from 1/27/21.

I'll side with the FBI on this one, I'm afraid.

But sure, when hanging out with like-minded folk, call it a "coup" all you want. :thumbsup:

You're siding with some equivocating douche-canoe who wrote an op-ed piece. not the FBI
 
From Jan 6 rally
Trump said:
As you know, the media has constantly asserted the outrageous lie that there was no evidence of widespread fraud. You ever see these people? "While there's no evidence of fraud." Oh, really?

All he has to do--all--this is--this is from the number one or certainly one of the top constitutional lawyers in our country he has the absolute right to do it; we're supposed to protect our country support our country, support our Constitution and protect our Constitution. States want to revote, the states got defrauded. They were given false information, they voted on it. Now they want to recertify; they want it back. All Vice President Pence has to do is send it back to the states to recertify, and we become president, and you are the happiest people.

He goes On to compare the 2020 election to be like something from a third-world country.
He explains that the US does not have a free and fair press and that the media is the enemy of the people.

He still hasn't admitted he lost.
I would think that the very minimum for “complying” would be to concede that the other guy won.

Telling the crowd to stop the steal is the opposite of complying. It’s the kind of thing that would be said by someone trying to oust the legitimate and fairly-elected government of the US.

He said similar things when he lost Iowa to Ted Cruz. If he runs again and loses primaries, he'll say the same thing.
 
Inciting imminent lawless action. Absolutely a crime. Not a coup attempt, especially as he didn't go along with it and (eventually) ordered the Guard to stop it. Kind of awkward to argue that he was attempting a coup when he ordered the military to quell it?
As C.Chainsaw reminds us, Trump did NOT order in the Guard. Which renders "didn't go along with it" as false.

Further, the coup attempt wasn't isolated to Jan 6. I wish deniers wouldn't deconstruct the coup, then render judgement on bits and pieces.
 
Hell, he said similar things when he won in 2016 “by a landslide”.

Well, in a way it was a "landslide"...at least compared to what the polling predicted. And 304 to 227 electoral votes isn't too shabby, either. It was a slightly wider margin of victory than Biden enjoyed.

Of course, some will screech about the popular vote (while I laugh at them). But, nobody cares. That isn't what determines a winner.

By the 10th Or 11th of December I knew there would be a coup attempt I expected Violence instigated By Trumpsters Dumb Conspiracy theories even sooner from his Racist Followers. I knew how they operated well.

As I mentioned before, it was telegraphed so loudly that even my non-political friends saw it coming a mile away. (Well a day or two)

You, like others, continue to Beg the Question. Back atcha, to give you a taste: you are a Lizard People Denier. Why do you deconstruct the fact of the Lizard People who run the world?

We all agree on the profoundly unAmerican actions of the ex-President and the J6ers. I have opined that we should be building new prisons to house them for their long-term stays, and in fact, I have been harsher on them than many here in insisting that the Feds et al should not be accepting plea bargains, as this is an unprecedented matter of principle that we should fund the prosecution of to the fullest extent of the law.

You and others here don't seem remotely interested in any of that. It's just using the word "coup" that has your knickers in a twist and has you arguing page after page. Why is that? Why is using the word "coup" so important to you, to the point of eclipsing the meat of the argument?

A Landslide of Lies.

According to the Nashville Bomber that I met in 2005, at the Tennessee state Fair, I am the Lizard People. Are you saying I run everything?
