I’d be shocked that he doesn’t do something, if only for self preservation; they’re obviously coming after him personally after the 20th.

I think the wildcard is the military. How many would stand with him and how many would say, “no,” and call it a coup. Although, if the 6th taught us anything, it’s that 250k people could take the capitol without firing a shot. So, at least that many 10x minimum plus military could easily take the country.
