To be fair, I do think it’s a bit different than a coup. If strong evidence comes out that the election was tampered with (which I could believe) then I’d call it a coup, but as it stands right now, it’s more like the American people voted to try a dictatorship political system out
Coup implies hostile takeover but Musk & Co. were just handed the reins to the US government
The executive branch is taking power from the legislative and judicial branch. By taking the power of the purse and by ignoring judicial orders.
The executive branch is executing a coup. Like by definition. No one voted to throw out the constitution. We voted for a president that had checks and balances. Now that they are in, they are ignoring the checks and consolidating power.

Right, yeah I can agree when it’s put that way. It’s definitely an interesting situation to say the least
