To use Mitt Romney’s words ‘attempt to subvert the will of the people’

Ah, like the "impeachment" charade?

Come on, this bs rhetoric just ensures no one will take D's seriously for the next 4 years... again. There is no coup, because he is still the duly elected president for the next 6 weeks. He is using all legal remedies available to him to dispute the results, as many politicians have done before him and will do for years to come. Until he breaks the law, or even states intent to do so, he's done nothing wrong.

Same goal posts for Cuomo?

Sure. I've said as much many times. The law is the law. Try to change it if you don't like it.

Nothing wrong is a VERY poor choice of words.

So you expect him to be successful? Because it definitely doesn't meet the first definition.

coup
/ko͞o/

noun
1.
a sudden, violent, and illegal seizure of power from a government.
"he was overthrown in an army coup"

2.
a notable or successful stroke or move.
"it was a major coup to get such a prestigious contract"

You're quoting one thing and criticizing my word choice on a different person. I said Trump did nothing wrong from a legal standpoint. CV asked if the same goalposts (standards) apply to Cuomo, and I think they should. That doesn't mean I think Cuomo has done nothing wrong, legally speaking.

I think Biden attempted the second definition of a coup yesterday,  he seemed to have a mini stroke on TV. He Wasn’t coherent and couldn’t  get the words out
