re: #59 Charles

but I think “military coup” is exactly the right word when the army breaks in with guns, hauls off the president and expels him from the country.

Except that the term is usually used to denote a situation when the army does that to TAKE OVER the country, leaving a general or two or five in charge. Here, they were (at least arguably) acting on the orders of civilian authorities, and civilian authorities are currently running things. It’s not Chile 1973.
