I don't have any insight into what to call it right now, but I thought for several decades after WWII it was still fascist? If anything being a banana republic might not be as as bad as what it used to be

Hell, how can you be a banana republic when you're not even a republic?

(Sorry for the pun, I'll see myself out.)
