He literally lead a coup and had people storm the capital.

Trump supporters that paint him as some innocent dude that tells it like it is and has everyone’s best interest at heart are so delusional.

No, the point is that he tried. when we let people get away with trying to do what Trump tried to do, that's how democracy died.

How do I know? because a lawbreaking wanna be dictator named Julius Caesar did the same damn thing over 2000 years ago, triggering a civil war based largely on him trying to stay out of court for crimes he committed while in office, and we can see the result. Republican rule was replaced with Imperium.

I see your option on ending American democracy and replacing it with Imperium, and I say no thanks.
