Honestly, still not a bad outcome. If it's happening either way it might as well be sooner and not on his terms. If he launches a coup then no one can pretend to be blind anymore.

Probably not a full-blown coup. He had lots of chances to do that already if his ducks were in a row, including 2020. But, US presidents have so much power there's quite a range of lesser options one could employ to shut down democracy.
