      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.

      The people the judge is speaking to don’t know what a coup means. They think it’s a place where chickens live.
