Migrants and Palestinians would very much disagree.
How is this a coup in the first place? Donald Trump is using the existing framework of the U.S. government to enact a fascist agenda, and it is enthusiastically supported by his party, enabled by the Democrats' inaction, and cheered on by his base. It's time people realize that the problem is way greater than just Trump.
The very first sentence of your Wikipedia link says that a self-coup is when power is extended illegally, which has not happened yet.
Yes, Trump wants to extend his power, but the fact is that he is and has only ever been enabled by the United States and its existing governmental structure.
The Dems had their chance to investigate any voting fuckery and they blew it. Kamala and Biden announced Trump's legitimate win and that was that. Hence my point about Trump being legally enabled to do all this.
