The fact that this sort of thing is still happening I blame on Merrick Garland. Three and a half years and all they've got from J6 are a bunch of groundlings, and short term stints for Bannon and Navarro. When other countries have coup attempts the round up all the plotters within 24 to 48 hours and that's the end of that.

If we survive this next election as a democracy, Biden replacing Garland is the absolute first thing I want to see done.
