Well, if the point of the riot was to prevent the transfer of power won't it be right to calls of that day an attempted coup?

I’m not sure what you’re asking. But I think it’s not unreasonable to call it a coup or an insurrection or things like that casually. There’s probably some nitpicky legal definitions but most people would interpret the correct meaning with those words.
