Yep.
"Banana Republic" is accurate. I saw the same thing in the late 70's in Nicaragua when Somoza was jailing his political enemies and dissidents, like Chamorro. Back then, Carter condemned it. Flash forward a few years, and the Party of Cater is now employing those same banana republic tactics themselves!
Who says they can't learn nuthin'? They seem to have learned very well from the likes of Anastasio Somoza!
But they should beware - when the curtain dropped on Somoza, he had to flee to Venezuela to survive, but he didn't survive long - a Sandinista hit squad found him there and assassinated him on orders from Daniel Ortega, the new Marxist strongman of Nicaragua..
So maybe they haven't learned quite enough, may not have thought this thing through to it's logical conclusion....
