People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

Coup d'état, also called coup, the sudden, violent overthrow of an existing government by a small group. The chief prerequisite for a coup is control of all or part of the armed forces, the police, and other military elements.

First of this is just a dude with a bully personality talking crap because he is a sore loser. Cherry picking a few random phrases out of context does not equal incitement. ESPECIALLY when the key phrase they point to the most "fight like hell" is one the democRATS themselves had used numerous times themselves in recent months.


Second, a coup is an organized attempt to overthrow a government. The conspirators know each other and have a plan.
These were a small bunch of angry randos who formed a mob. Some wanted to prevent certification, some wanted to kill democrats, some just wanted to vent, it was a mixed bag. So, no organization, no prior association, no plan, no coup.

Anyone who insists otherwise is either just trolling or trying to make political hay out of weeds. In either case such people deserve to be smacked up side the head with a rather large dictionary.

Beware the sound of one hand clapping.

I take Great Pleasure in the fact that back in 2016, Many of those Trump Supporting Sore Losers that attacked the U.S. Capital on January 6th were chanting, yelling, and screaming "LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP!" (when it came to Hillary Clinton) over and over and over and over and over again during that whole entire Election and now here we are in 2021 and they (the ones that attacked the Capital) are the ones that got found (and still are getting found), arrested, and locked up.


LOL, How is that for "Karma".

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

When extremist democRATS act out and do stupid shit regular democRATS will flock to their defense and try to downplay and defend the actions of their extremist colleagues.

Because of this democRATS tend to think that republicans will do the same when their own step out of line. I suspect that THIS is why you made this post. Because you think I will be upset, you expect me to care, to defend their actions.

Lol.

No.

Well, this is what happens when tourists get out of hand.

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

I guess the angry BLM and ANTIFA Democrap mob attempted a coup of the city streets last year, with way more damage.

Yes, they did get out of hand and also got handed a free pass.

Norman! What did you put in my tea?

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

Oh man ITA!

The MSM pretty much swept away the riots, death and destruction that BLM/Antifa caused last year because blacks getting murdered by cops and the reactions are excusable while rioting and demonstrating for a president others are afraid to let go are not.

You bet your buns that every Jan. 6th everyone of MSM is going to bring it up with footage and witness accounts etc of "The Day Democracy was Under Attack" and all that BS while footage of arson from BLM goes and stays in the back of the vault.

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

It would be racist to call out the appalling and atrocious behavior of BLM and ANTIFA especially under democrat tenure.

Its complete and utter blatant hypocrisy and shows how many numbskulls we have out there lapping up all the lies and deceptions spewed by the MSM.

Trying to prevent our democratic process from taking place and plotting to kill politicians: what you just described is an attempted coup. But even if you don't believe it was a coup attempt, raiding the Capitol with the intent to cause harm is nothing to downplay. You don't smack someone up side the head for plotting murder, you punish them to the full extent of the law.

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

what you just described is an attempted coup.

No. It is not according to the definition. See, no one is trying to downplay anything but at the same time I refuse to allow the event to be blown out of proportion and portrayed as something it is not. Technical accuracy is important.

Beware the sound of one hand clapping.

Re: People who describe Jan 6th as a coup attempt are pathetic

Agreed. Preventing the election winner's administration from taking power is the same as taking power away from that administration.

You don't get to say it wasn't a coup attempt just because they were bad at getting the job done.

Also, Trump telling the DOJ to reject election results is another element in the failed coup.

It all gets a pass by right-wingers if the people behind it are doing it exclusively to keep the GOP in power.

But if anyone with dark skin loots and riots, it's off with their head.
