"A Republican North Carolina congressional candidate has argued that calling the US a banana republic is insulting the clothing chain of the same name.

Appearing on The John Fredericks Radio Show, Bo Hines said that using the phrase is “an insult to Banana Republics across the country”.

The 26-year-old former college football player was speaking about the recent FBI search of former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence. Federal agents are reported to have gathered top secret documents improperly removed from the White House at the end of Mr Trump’s term in office.


“You know, a lot of people have likened the situation that’s going on right now as, you know, they say we’re in a banana republic,” Mr Hines said.

“I think that’s an insult to Banana Republics across the country,” he added, referring to the clothes store. “I mean, at least the manager of Banana Republic, unlike our president, knows where he is and why he’s there and what he’s doing.”
