      A coup doesn’t have to be violent. It can utilize existing rules if it breaks their spirit or the ability to change them.

      A coup is a forceful seizure of governmental power that subverts the existing system of power. That includes shit like this.

      A coup can be military but also from other bodies.

      In this case it would be a self-coup since a lawfully elected power would be attempting to maintain power by illegal means.
