Nothing you posted debunks it. You are acknowledging that the duly elected leader was removed from his position without following the constitutional process. The rest is just noise, including that unanimous vote - yea of course people are going to vote that way when there are violent armed insurrectionists around.

So you are saying that a unanimous vote is more likely a coup than a reaction to the horror of the president ordering an attack on innocent protesters? An attack that killed some hundred people, in fact.
I guess you could call that a "coup." I guess I could argue that war is peace, too. Both could be called propaganda.

There are several ways to replace the elected leader, and they correctly followed the procedure for replacing him through snap elections. Snap elections might be a novel idea for Americans who are used to presidents always serving the full term no matter what, but they are fairly common in Europe. Germany had snap elections just last Sunday.
