John Bolton was trying I guess to defend Donald Trump on CNN, and he said that he knows it’s hard to plan a coup d’etat, because he’s planned them in other countries.
He says 1/6 couldn’t have been a coup, because Trump would have had to have spent more time planning it.
Stunning statement from former National Security Advisor John Bolton on CNN just now:
"As someone who has helped plan coup d'état — not here but, you know, other places — it takes a lot of work." pic.twitter.com/3rsSX355ND

We know the countries he’s talking about – at least some of them. But the US government has never admitted to this before.
