Second ('Third') Trump Presidency Thread

the history is quite long:

1) France imposed very large reparations on Haiti when it became independent in 1804. Payment of those reparations lasted well into the 20th century.
2) Repeated foreign intervention, including U.S. occupation from 1915 to 1934.
3) The interaction between an extremely stratified society and weak institutions.
4) Man-made disasters, including deforestation.
5) Natural disasters, including a devastating earthquake in 2010

Graham Greene's "The Comedians" gives a good fictionalized account of life under the Duvalier dictatorship.

Chesty Puller's biography gives a brief but a colorful account of the U.S. occupation.
