Principles, honor and the coming American banana republic - Washington Times

Principles, honor and the coming American banana republic - Washington Times:

Image result for flickr commons images Banana RepublicYou’ve got a Democrat in Georgia refusing to concede, filing a suit to extend the certification deadline. You’ve got races in Florida won by Republicans now headed to recounts demanded by Democrats. You’ve got a race in Arizona that seemed all-in for the Republican but then shifted, days and days after polls closed, to the Democrat. You’ve got courts and recounts and counties with histories of problems at the polls, accusations and conspiracies, heated exchanges and tense televised spats, media buzzing that stokes even more fiery concerns — some due, some undue — and at the end of the day, you’ve got an American public that’s left with a big old pot of mayhem and madness, collectively puzzling a week after elections about who really won.
Can you say banana republic?
