Huh, I wonder about what the difference is here between 'Trying to (badly) execute a coup d'etat' and 'protest in the street turning more radical after the militarized police starts using violence'. Nope, this must be equivalized such that one can pretend to be the moderate center

Illegal immigrants can't and didn't vote though. And while a single statement wouldn't have worked, the 2 years of democrats running hard right on immigration legitimized the republican view of it as the only one - is it any surprise that became widespread even amongst immigrants?
