it make?"
For the bird cage...
How dare a president enforce the law against fellow politicians?

When the head of your nation’s main law enforcement agency, FBI Director John Comey, reveals himself to be nothing more than a common criminal, you know you live in a Banana Republic.
Good list -
I would add:
If one candidate has a charitable foundation that takes in hundreds of millions to help poor Haitians after a disaster and keeps the money “in the family” you live in a Banana Republic.
They funneled peoples money - given with a charitable heart to help the poorest people on Earth - to their own donors and family. It is outrageous and dare I say, by their own math, it is racist. Probably illegal too, but I am sure nothing will happen. Meanwhile the island is reeling again from Hurricane Matthew yet the organization we were told was uniquely suited to provide aid to the nation is absolutely silent. Wouldn’t a reasonable person assume that the charity that had the infrastructure to deliver aid only years ago would be uniquely positioned to help again? Crickets.
What dominates the airwaves here in the U.S.? A tape of crass comments made 11 years ago by a businessman.
“Banana Republic” is when the national leader is a criminal and no one cares. In other words, Hillary.
Absolutely spot on.
I no longer recognize the country that I thought I knew 20 years ago.
Most of our politicians have gamed the system.
