What kind of “coup”??

Is it a “coup” if senior officials under a President suffering from dementia convince that President he ought to resign, or at least not campaign for reelection??

It depends on the meaning of the word “convince”.

Godfather “convince”:

It's a coup if his handlers release a letter purportedly by The Rutabaga without telling him.

Which is possible in this case.
