Someone in the media finally said it!

Translated: "Who's the Banana Republic now?"

Demands to stop the vote count. Baseless accusations of fraud. Claims that the opposition is trying to “steal” the election.
...
“Who’s the banana republic now?” Colombian daily newspaper Publimetro chided on the front page with a photo of a man in a U.S. flag print mask.

The irony of seeing U.S. Donald Trump cut off by major media networks Thursday as he launched unsubstantiated claims lambasting the U.S. electoral system was not lost on many. The U.S. has long been a vocal critic of strongman tactics around the world. Now, some of those same targets are turning around the finger.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro laughed as the vote dragged on past Tuesday, briefly breaking into the hymn of his nation’s annual beauty contest on state TV, singing, “On a night like to night, any of them could win.”

Hopefully someone will put together a graphic of all newspaper headlines for us. But remember Wikileaks told the world that democrats cheated Bernie for Hillary's sake. I don’t agree with the media cutting away from Trump except for its entertainment value.

This seems related.

Biden’s just putting the mask back on this country. Many will see that.

We've been a banana republic since 2000 - and back then, Castro's Cuba got in a far better zing when they offered "to send democracy educators".

@The Liberal Moonbat , way back in the early 1900s. A corporation, the United Fruit Company, had the full support and use of the US military to overthrow and install Latin American governments at will, always looking for a strongman that would make selling bananas more profitable for the corporation...no matter the cost for anyone else.
