He didn't fake the coup; rather his people protected him because some military generals were the head behind the coup; and Turkish people did not want to live the tragedy of WW1's period,
I'm still against the dictators of the ME to the core; I still want to see every one of them pay and get trialed and get the guillotine , Erdogan is having a war right now against Assad and against Haftar and against SISI. So he doesn't look as bad as you picture him to be.
So if a few military officers and troops were plotting a coup, why did tens of thousands of civil servants, teachers, and members of opposition parties also get detained, lose their jobs, and end up with many restrictions placed on them?
In addition to everything else he has done, he is making war on the Kurds, the most effective fighters against ISIS. They were also betrayed by Trump.
