I think this is some old SoA/Battalion 316 types, who, after decades of being armed and trained by the U.S., reflexively took advantage of the Supreme Court/referendum situation to remove a President who was friendly toward Hugo Chavez and other leftists, assuming that their rich uncle would welcome them with open arms.
I imagine that the U.S. response to the coup has been like a nice bucket of ice water in their faces.
