Wait. I’m not sure what he’s arguing for here? It seems like he’s saying that when conservatives realize there aren’t enough of them, they will attempt a coup?
Sounds like some people need to get fucking serious about the tolerance paradox. If the inevitable end game of conservatism is authoritarianism, then the answer isn’t to nurture their party. The answer is to keep them as far from power as fucking possible.
Fuck.

To be fair, I haven't read his book, so I can only go by this quote. Based on this quote alone, I don't think he's arguing for any particular action. It seems to me he's warning people about this threat. The Democrats failed to act when they had the opportunity.
