Uh what? I’m all about American hegemony but let’s not stupid.

Mossadegh Arbenz Allende Goulart Lumunba And Maduro was elected as well though you can go on with it being corrupt if you want.

These are just the ones we directly overthrew who were elected. There are 20 more or so we’ve done so indirectly.
