Don’t you hate it when he gets one right? Blind pigs and acorns and all that.

It ain’t democracy if he the elected leader was forced put out of office by physical and violent force. His house was ram sacked, other members of his party houses were burned and a mayor was kidnapped.

He rigged the reelection. The people were not having it.

No, I am happy when he gets it right and more than willing to acknowledge it. That said, a military coup may be a significant moment for democracy but it is hardly a positive one.
