    This kind of makes me want to move to Chile... Along with the PCC leading in polls. Chile seems like it's on the road to greatness, assuming the US isn't successful in fucking them over again.

        This is why I've been saying that I'd prefer Trump as president. As a non-American, I'd prefer isolationist (at least relative to other recent presidents) Trump over interventionist Biden.

        Maybe, but the US has a lot working against it right now as far as this goes. China and Russia are stronger than they once were and won't likely standby and watch the US do that to such a resource rich country. Also, in the internet age, it's not as easy to support violent repression and avoid any domestic criticism, although this hasn't prevented them from supporting coups in a more discrete way.
