Mark Zaid, defended his tweets calling for a “coup” against the Trump. Zaid claims to be nonpartisan but he is obviously not when he calls for a coup against the president of the United States. He wrote in early 2017 that a “coup” against Trump “has started,” and that “rebellion” would come, to be followed by “impeachment.” He is fully on board in the coup to overthrow Trump. He wrote back in July 2017: “We will get rid of him, and this country is strong enough to survive even him and his supporters.”
