Durbin: Trump’s Coup Attempt Was a ‘Conscious Plan, Strategy That Did Not Work’
Breitbart ^ | 08/09/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/10/2021 6:08:50 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) said Monday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that he believed former President Donald Trump attempted a coup with a “conscious plan, strategy, that did not work.”

Anchor Nicolle Wallace said, “We’re learning some stunning new details about the former president’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election result, thanks to testimony from his former acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen. Rosen told the Senate Judiciary Committee over the weekend about efforts by his own deputy to enlist the DOJ in sowing doubt about the election results. Our next guest sat through Mr. Rosen’s testimony and concluded that Trump’s post-election efforts were ‘leading up to a coup.’ Joining us now, the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Democratic Senator from Illinois Dick Durbin.”

If it was a coup, Durbin wouldn’t be here to comment.

Whatever democrats say, the opposite is true. The attempted a coup, and they succeeded.

Since Trump is currently in exile, I suppose we sit on the sidelines and let the Republican party defend him against this nonsense?

Did Durbin say it was the worst thing since the My Lai Massacre?

Dickhead Durbin has been around for how long?

I cannot believe libtards wanted to put back in charge the same people who ran things for the previous 3 or 4 decades.

Actually... they didn’t. This elections was stolen, and pissing-off 80 million people is not a good idea.

Trump would not fight and feared the sight of blood.

The Durbin coup is a victorious success

Just another Illinois legislator wanting to be noticed again trying his best to sound relevant. Illinois certainly has their share of them.

Didn’t this guy announce his retirement, YEARS ago?

What is with these old Senator coots who say they’re retiring, then they hang around for as long as they can hold on?

When’s Mitch leaving?

These entitled oligarchs are sickening.

There was a coup. It was called the 2020 stolen election. But it started before the 2016 election. Took a while for them to get it done.

As usual, that lying sack of shit Durbin can’t come up with a single syllable that Trump uttered that could be remotely construed as “insurrectionist.”

One thing these pukes had better understand... if our side really, truly had staged an uprising that day, it would’ve been armed... it would’ve been massive... and it would’ve been SUCCESSFUL.
