Can you explain me these? Azaña and the popular front were couping and plotting all the time and broke the laws that THEY had created multiple times

>Proclaim a government before the second round even happens
>Not a coup.
If Le Pen did that would it be legitimate you dumb fuck? The votes of half of the provinces weren't even recounted and Azaña just did a coup against Portela Valladares

If Le Pen win the majority and the votes and does the same, it would be awful but it also wouldn't allow the Socialist Party to immediately perform another coup and cancelling the elections for the next 40 years.

>If Le Pen win the majority
We don't know that as
a) The second round didn't even happen
b) The votes from some provinces (mainly conservative) hadn't been couunt.Azaña just did a coup in 1936.He tried to make a coup in 1933 and 1934 and did a coup in 1931.
