Was Trump's Capitol Riot an attempted coup?



I think Trump had a three part plan, but backed out when Mike Pence refused to announce him as the true winner of the election.

There's no reason to believe he had a plan

He organized a protest, riled them up, and told them to go to the Capitol. You think he was making it up as he went along?

I don't know if he coordinated with the cops to let them in the building or not. I don't think he's sneaky enough to pull that off without other people in the White House knowing about it.

But he absolutely wanted the rabble to do whatever it took to overturn the election.

Not having a realistic plan doesnt mean it wasnt a coup.

I think he definitely planned for this to happen. However, with the reports throughout his presidency about his ignorance of ethics in politics, i dont believe he knew the consequences. I believe he just thought it would get treated like BLM protests. He's just as dumb as his supporters that would invade the capitol

It was an attempted coup in the same sense as a child stealing a cookie out of a cookie jar in an attempt to starve his family to death.

Since all of that happened on the basis of his ranting and rambling, yes. He was mad, said what he wanted to say without knowledge of law or consideration for consequences, and look what fucking happened.

I really want to hear the argument for the people who vote no.

The people who did it flat out say why they did it.

  • congresspeople gave tours to the terrorists the day before
  • The terrorists knew where targets would be thanks to congresspeople texting out their locations
  • Panic buttons were ripped out of desks prior to the terror attack
  • Police collaborated with the terrorists
  • Numerous weapons and explosives were seized from the terrorists
  • They built a fucking gallows and demanded pences head

It's crazy how there were explosives found and it's not even in the top 10 talking points for politicians or the media. Or that there are still dumb fucks refusing to call them terrorists knowing that they fucking had bombs.

I'm not disagreeing with you.

It just amazes me that they went through all of off this, and about the most they got out of it was some selfies.

It's a total shit show.
