If a president [Trump] is willing, through lies and deceit, to push his followers into the civil war, regardless of the human cost involved, what else could he do if they reelect him [president]?” said Jason Van Tatenhov to the commission investigating the attack on the American Capitol on January 6, 2021. Van Tatenhove, a former member and spokesman for The Oath Keepers, is an extreme right-wing supremacist group of armed civilians. In fact, in recent weeks it has been announced that Trump contacted far-right groups in the days before the attack.

Former Donald Trump administration National Security Advisor John Bolton has suggested that the former president did not have enough capacity to deal with a carefully planned coup d'état gauzatzeko.Gaineratu, so the capitol attack "was not an attack on our democracy. He released vandals in the Capitol, no doubt, but not to remove the Constitution from power, but to buy time for him."

However, these have not been the expressions that have caused the uproar. Bolton is right for those who denounce America’s incessant intervention in the lives of citizens of other nations: “As someone who has helped plan the coups, not here, but elsewhere, I know that a lot of work needs to be done.” Bolton worked as National Security Advisor between 2018 and 2019 until Trump stopped. Bolton is known for his Zionist positions, but especially for being one of the founders of the Iraq war in 2003 to topple Saddam Hussein, one of those who flirted with weapons of mass destruction. George W. During Bush’s mandate he was also an UN ambassador between 2005 and 2006.

The 2019 political crisis in Venezuela has been exposed by Bolton, who was still a National Security advisor. During these years the American government was the main creator and promoter of the figure of Juan Guaidó. Thanks to the international support of EE.UU, Guaidós self-proclaimed president of Venezuela without going through the ballot box. Bolton acknowledges in the dialogue the failure of this coup against the Venezuelan government, elected by the citizens.

The United States has a long history in military assistance, financing, organizing and actively promoting coups d'état against democratically elected governments. And perhaps a country that organizes blows should not surprise so much when it happened at home itself.
