    Even though they removed Biden in a coup.

    Biden stepping down is called a coup?! But an actual coup attempt like January 6th, illegally invading congress and killing officers and threatening to kill several politicians is OK???

    What the fuck are those MAGA idiots high on?

      That’s been their strategy for years. Repeat some bullshit over and over in an attempt to change the definition or reduce the severity of it. They’ve did the same thing quite well with socialist and communist. Even liberals are afraid to say these words because we’ve been hardwired to think those are as bad as the term Nazi.

      Trump claimed that Biden was removed in a coup designed to hurt the Trump campaign, so his supporters believe it. It really is that simple.

      I mean why would he lie? /s

      Also, since it’s apparently legal for a president to do anything he wants, I find it tough to figure out how they could’ve done a coup on him at all.

      Coup is a word with a lot of power, particularly given Jan. 6th. They have to make it meaningless. It’s the same reason they try to hang fascism on Democrats because they have to weaken the power of that word and make it seem like Nazi is just another mundane political attack that everyone uses and means nothing. Then when they bring actual fascists up on the stage with them and they get called Nazis, they can just say it’s the pot calling the kettle black.

      Fox News and a lifetime of leaded gasoline is a hell of a drug.

      Every say a word so much it loses almost all meaning? Now subtract half your braincells and ask yourself how much quicker it would lose all meaning. Now you are on your way
