I am not sure what there makes you think they were trying to seize power. The simple presence f guns or incendiary devices does not show that at all any more than it did at BLM protests.
Oof that's some brutal strawman action right there. And besides, no one brought a gun into the Capitol at BLM protests!!!!! And I'm not defending guns at BLM protests (or anything about BLM protests), but it's irrelevant. A protest on the street where some had guns can't be construed as an attempt to seize power. In the Capitol - attempting to get close to members of the legislature - on the other hand is a whole different beast. And I love how you used the phrase incendiary devices to try to cast a wide net. They were pipe bombs! Planted at the committee headquarters of our country's 2 major parties!!!!
You're really burying your head in the sand here. Go take a few minutes to read up on this stuff. There's a pic of a guy in on of the chambers holding a bunch of ziptie style cuffs. This was all 'coordinated' on right wing social media. You can read all about their intentions there.

Had it been a coup attempt there would have been a bloodbath on both sides.
Their incompetence and the Capitol police's apathy did that. That doesn't mean it wasn't a coup. If they'd laid eyes on Pelosi, Schumer, the squad - heck possibly even Pence with some of the rhetoric out there - it might've been a different story. And when they bumped into the secret service, there was blood.
