4. I never thought that Vendepatria could ever be applied to a US administration

I never thought that I'd see the day that the Latin American term Vendepatria could EVER be applied to a ruling US political party and presidential administration.

Vendepatria is an insult traditionally used by leftists to describe people, parties, and governments with so little loyalty to their country and countrymen that they are more than willing to sell it off to the highest bidders, domestic and foreign alike, for their own personal enrichment. Woe to our beloved country, that day has come.
