Quote of the day

 

From The Diplomad, referring to the Trump indictment:


We have become a banana republic with nuclear weapons. My apology to banana republics; they, at least, provide us bananas.


Word.

    We are now a banana republic. I weep for the old republic.

  4. We made the original "Banana Republics", too. The U.S. military, mainly the Marines, made incursions on behalf of the United Fruit Company into Guatemala and Honduras. It made the fruit company the primary power in the region. Hence the name.
