The Corporate Coup D'État (2018)

7.6 | Nov 18, 2018 (CA) | Documentary | 01:29

What if a worldwide coup happened and nobody noticed?

A democracy should protect its most vulnerable citizens, but increasingly the United States is failing to do so. This investigation blends the insights of experts with the experiences of citizens of the Rust Belt in the Midwest where the steel industry once flourished, but where closures and outsourcing have left urban areas desolate. It is here where Donald Trump finds some of his most fervent supporters.
