Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsIs Trump pushing for a coup #2, in the near future?
If he can get enough of the natives to commit violence and threaten violence maybe he's thinking the intimidation will get a few states to decertify their elections? Or maybe just storm the Capitol with a million crazy people this time?

still running, on the Supreme Court.
Check out Moore v. Harper, on the docket.

another coup would be.

He'd be hurting himself. TFG has failed to convince Arizona and Georgia to decertify.
TFG could only convince about 30k to go to DC for the 1/6 protest. I highly doubt he could get a million to do so.
