I've heard conservatives say "Banana Republic" like 30 times since yesterday, and not once did they talk about fruit companies taking over the government of a South American country and influencing it. Literally, they're so stupid.

Fruit companies didn’t take over these countries, it was the US military that did and handed control to the fruit companies that were based in the US.
