We are a Banana Republic.

• Extremely stratified social classes-check
• Large impoverished working class- check
• Ruling class plutocracy comprised of business political and military elites- check
• Kleptocrats who maximize their financial gains on the backs of the every day workers- check
• Elimination of accountability and oversight- check. (White House ethics officer quit, Inspectors General being fired, Intel heads fired, Attorneys General fired, refusal to comply with subpoenas from Congress, refusal to recognize authority of the legislative branch)
• Nepotism- check.
• Cronyism- check (see Elaine Chou and Betsy DeVos)
• Policies designed to benefit the wealthiest- check
• State run news- check
• Attacks on the free press and journalists - check
• Weaponize justice through Department of Justice- check
• Enemies list- check
• Attacks on free and fair elections - check
• Dismantle checks and balances- check
• Eliminate all internal opposition within the cabinet, agencies, their staff, National Security Council, Generals etc- check.

This is where we are, folks This all happened in the past three short years, right under our noses with this President and his administration.

Thanks, Mr. President!
