- oh i dont know stuff like this -- (link) - Jovian Nov 19, 07:58 4
  - They're saying a bunch of stuff they have no power to do, or willing participants that can. None of it is good, but it doesn't add up to Trump - Reagen Nov 19, 08:01 2
    - Right. I mean, I'm not saying they aren't trying. They are absolutely flailing around trying to accomplish this. I just have yet to see any evidence - pmb Nov 19, 08:39
    - This summarizes it pretty well. -- nm - MDH Nov 19, 08:01
  - So another nonstory... I beg of you stay off Twitter. You’re getting worked up over stuff that means absolutely nothing. -- nm - MDH Nov 19, 07:59
Yes, it still does. We all knew he was going to bring baseless lawsuits. -- (edited) - Inigo Nov 19, 07:35
It does, yes. -- nm - David Nov 19, 07:33 14
- so Im not saying it will be successful, but you dont think there is an active coup happening right now? -- nm - Jovian Nov 19, 07:35 13

    - I don't think so, or else we wouldn't sometimes use the term "military coup" & sometime not. I did think it had to involve violence of some kind tho -- nm - mara Nov 19, 07:43 7
      - "It was a bloodless coup.....all smothering" -- nm - prayformojo Nov 19, 07:47 1

        I gotcha. Makes sense. Pretty hard to use violence without military support anyway. -- nm - mara Nov 19, 07:48 3
        
        Frankly, I seem to use a broader definition of violence than simply tanks in the streets. (NM) - Marlowe Nov 19, 07:59 2
        
        Physical violence, causing death or injury, or the credible threat of it. -- nm - mara Nov 19, 08:12 1
        
        Yes. (NM) - Marlowe Nov 19, 08:25
  - Where your disconnect is, is that you were certain it was going to be successful and there was no stopping it. -- nm - Reagen Nov 19, 07:40
  - I think that this has played out exactly like most of us expected, with a criminal trying to commit crimes but getting rejected. - David Nov 19, 07:36 2
    - The system is holding. A bit ugly, but holding. -- nm - 🦃Spawn🦃 Nov 19, 07:38 1
      - yes -- nm - mud Nov 19, 07:41
