2. ELITE SUPPORT // Coups don't succeed without heavy elite involvement. That was one of the most important parts of Jan6: the highly visible role of Trump and others seeking to overturn the election. That's how coups work: elites wield unrest, i.e. the capitol siege, as tools. — PolitiTweet.org

On Jan6, the storming of Congress was just one part of a larger plot to overturn the election in an orchestrated autogolpe/self-coup. In Brazil, there was no apparent larger plot. No electoral process to seize. It was just the riot. — PolitiTweet.org

That elite involvement didn't materialize in Brazil. Even if it turns out some pols played a role in quietly encouraging the unrest, that's not the same thing as leaders visibly coordinating to seize power from the top. — PolitiTweet.org
