No. Not a “banana republic.”

“My guess is that by the end of this process, you’re going to see indictments involving high-level people in the [Trump] White House, you’re going to see indictments against people outside the White House who were advising them with regard to the attempt to steal the election, and I think ultimately you’re probably going to see the president, former president of the United States indicted as well.”
Four days after Obama's ex-attorney general Holder spoke, the FBI raided Trump’s Florida estate.
We have named the Democratic Party a “criminal organization.” But crimes, committed while strongly believing the “ends justify the means,” will be forgotten if Democrats succeed in de-legitimizing their opposition. In one-party countries, only the losers are punished. The Party rules; its every action legal.
The Federalist’s Joy Pullmann reminds us that Democrats called Donald Trump a “fascist, authoritarian, and wannabe dictator” because whenever he mentioned Hillary Clinton in 2016, rally crowds roared back “Lock her up!” Democrats described talk of imprisoning, interrogating, investigating, and otherwise using government power to prosecute one’s opponent as echoing Vladimir Putin and Adolf Hitler-like tyrannical regimes. “Democracies don’t lock up political opponents,” a Washington Post editorial solemnly wrote that year.
Right.
Then in 2020, coordinated leftist rioters across state lines — in far greater numbers and with more criminal activity than any seen on January 6 — firebombed federal buildings, murdered people, looted, burned down downtowns, and assaulted police officers.
Also, nobody involved in perpetrating the false “Russia! Russia! Russia!” setup of Trump has been brought to justice, including Michael Sussmann, who got away with lying to the FBI in a classic case of unequal, insider, “protect Democrats” justice (see blog post here).

Pullmann reminds us that despite the assassination attempt on Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh, the Justice Department has still not arrested any persons harassing and threatening justices and their families at their homes, as required by law.
Democrats are institutionalizing legal double standards. To Pullmann, it’s

destruction of the justice system. A country that harshly prosecutes people or lets them off Scot-free based on their political affiliation is a banana republic. A two-tier justice system is not a justice system. It is a totalitarian system. [emphasis added]
To me, the widely-used “banana republic” phrase is, like a ripe fruit, too softy softy. The FBI seems working toward the Democratic Party's legal enforcement instrument, a budding version of the Soviet Communist Party’s KGB, or the East German Communist Party's infamous Stasi.
Before it collapsed with the Berlin Wall's fall, the Stasi’s 100,000 employees relied on perhaps 2,000,000 collaborators, while maintaining files on 6,000,000 East German citizens —more than one-third of East Germany’s population. Russian KGB personnel numbered more than 480,000, including 200,000 Border Guards.
Both the KGB and Stasi had internal and external arms. Currently, the FBI numbers 35,000; the CIA 22,000, for a total of 57,000. But Congressional Democrats have just added 87,000 agents to the IRS; 87,000 to its large potential for mischief. Or worse.
