Though serious, listening to radio reports, I think if anyone in the media actually thought of the magnitude of the effort needed to stage a coup in the USA they'd step back a provide more thoughtful analysis of the crew who stormed the Capitol. Criminal trespass etc yes... shaking the foundations of bourgeois rule... no. https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2021/01/maga-cosplayers-seize-capitol-while-cops-flounder.html
More within the realm of possibility could be Senate Bill 1 type legislation introduced during the Nixon administration http://www.slp.org/res_state_htm/s1_menace76.html "The backers of S. 1 are not seeking uniform legal perfection, they are seeking stiffer repressive power against “criminals,” political dissent, free assembly, speech and press, and in general to erect a legal bulwark against democratic freedoms that are no longer compatible with modern capitalist rule. They want no more Pentagon papers or CIA revelations, no more antiwar movements and no more civil rights protests."
