what would you call it if they had succeeded in hanging Mike Pence? or had succeeded in stopping the certifying of the election? or if Pence had certified the election using illegal electors?
If your goal is to keep the LOSER in power and you take illegal actions to achieve that goal, it is a coup. It doesn't require millions of people, though I suspect the millions of MAGA people out there would have supported those illegal actions. Some would have taken up arms too. It doesn't require millions of guns either. 3 people were CHARGED with having a gun on Capitol grounds, but that does not mean there were only 3 guns present. And weapons don't only mean guns.
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
