Not quite. But pretty darn close. Storm the Capitol on Jan 6. Convince them all to count the vote for you. That was 2021. But he stopped short of convincing them all to vote for him.

It wasn't close, at least in strategy. It is a completely different category to try to remain in power under color of law (however far=fetched the theory) and retain the trappings of the Constitution than it is to nakedly try to remain in power by throwing the Constitution away. Again, the risks of failure are in a completely different order of magnitude: fail in the former and you're just out your legal fees, fail in the latter and your dead.

Completely different level of risk, and completely different approach. Even if the desired outcome is the same - stay in power - it's a whole 'nuther world if you try to dispense with working within the system and just declare yourself a military dictator.
