American patriots and almost all ordinary citizens accept the outcome of elections. They don't ramp up if their side loses. They work against those elected, they protest, they plan for the next election. This was an insurrection without a lot of armaments. Most enlightening to me, and sorry to those who've seen my posts before, is "Ten Days that Shook the World" in book form from the only western journalist on the ground for the November 1917 revolution. The parallels of projection, blaming the opposition, dueling propaganda, proclamations, marches, key players - it was an amazing read. It's an old book, downloadable free online. If we had widespread anarchy or a state of war - as they had tried to caste an unwilling Antifa the previous summer - they might have succeeded.
