    It’d be like Jan 6th forcing Biden to not take office.

    Not quite, because only a very small minority of americans wanted this to happen. In Ukraine, the forces against Yanukovich’s rule were democratic in nature, and were backed by massive protests that Yanukovich tried to suppress violently. I would call it a revolution.

        Yes, a revolution. That’s not at all what tankies are implying when they claim it’s a coup, and I’m sure you know it.
