Donald Trump’s failed coup
On
By Rotimi Fasan
Many have described the day as one that would live in infamy but Wednesday, January 6 was one in which America’s forty-fifth president, Donald John Trump, finally proved beyond any reasonable doubt that he is totally unhinged and there was no red line beyond which he would not go.
It was on this day that he gave full vent and expression to his refusal to accept that he lost the presidential election to his rival of the Democratic Party, Joe Biden, the man he derisively labelled Sleepy Joe in his typically infantile way, won the election. Since November 3, 2020 when Biden made the 270 Electoral College vote and the election was called for him, Trump had refused to acknowledge his defeat. The loss was too personal and bruising for Trump who had always called anyone in a similar situation a loser.
