    I don’t think she really believes it’s an actual coup, Republicans have just been calling everything a coup since the Jan. 6th, 2021 Beer Gut Putsch, I assume to muddy the waters around that specific word and run interference for their wannabe dictator.

      This is the first time I’ve heard “Beer Gut Putsch” and I have to say that it has absolutely made my day.
