Perhaps, but this coup will not be necessarily all that draconian in its presentation. At first at least, until it has consolidated its populist base and the military. While he will have no appeal to the more radical elements he will maintain a very broad populist base and immediately address an over riding public desire for stability and order. The radicals will be quickly isolated and pacified.
Unlike the current inept individual, who, bone spurs and all, is at best solid Master Corporal material, the USA will be introduced to a real Field Marshall who can and will clear the field of the political debris left by all his predecessors. The price will be steep, but I contend that the people will not notice until well after he has consolidated his power base.

Everybody's fat.
As long as everybody has food, protests will continue in the yellow area of the dial.
When people in North America start getting hungry, then the gauge moves into the red, we've entered the Big Time. And if red includes race, guess who loses.
For your consideration.

Larry, read again what I wrote. Trump, is not going to lead anything, other than likely winning a 4 year second term later this year. Besides, he'll be well over 80 when it unfolds and that is only if his health holds out that long. LIkewise the Democrats will not lead a coup either. On the contrary, they will be the primary target of the coup.
In fact it I suspect the ursupation will come from either the outside or the periphery of the current political party system. You, in particular, will support it.
