I'm pretty sure he had suspended all elections so that he couldn't be voted out if we merely did nothing.I don't believe that's correct. Source?

I read it in National Review many years ago. I'm sure they said that he had suspended elections. He was, like I said, engaging in dirty tricks to influence lawmakers to basically get them to vote to suspend all law and give it to him. Those dirty tricks included capturing them on video having sex with whoever at his presidential palace. He was portrayed as a monster in that article. The people were rioting in the streets and going hungry. Things were not well in chile. The pinochet coup was a very good thing for chile, history must record if it is to be honest. But if history is written by marxists, then lies are the norm.
