Trump said that Venezuela’s new leader, Delcy Rodríguez, would help the United States run Venezuela. She quickly said the opposite.
Trump said Delcy Rodríguez was sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and would act as a partner in letting the United States run the country.
“She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again,” he said.
Less than two hours later, Ms. Rodríguez — who was Nicolás Maduro’s vice president — delivered a televised address to Venezuela that made clear she viewed the United States as an illegal invader that must be rejected.
I’m an American and believe the nations of the world should sanction us into economic ruin over this (and everything else from the last year).
Nah. Just a targeted police action to arrest the rogue elements who purport to be the lawfully elected government.
They’d be justified in sanctions, but I don’t think that it would actually accomplish anything. The people doing this shit don’t give a flying fuck about them because it would hurt you and me, not them.
I support bombing both DC and Mar a Lago. Or, just bomb one of the golf courses he’s at. He’s such an easy target for anyone that wants to kill him.
If only he took less stimulants so that he stood still enough for that nice young man from Pennsylvania
Dictators around the world are getting too comfortable. They’re seeing too many examples of other dictators getting away with war crimes, illegal invasions, and other atrocities.
Putin emboldened Netanyahu, Netanyahu emboldened trump, and I don’t even want to think about who’s going to feel emboldened by trump.
Rules based order, multilateralism, and international law seem to be crumbling with no enforcement. Arguably the greatest achievements of the twentieth century, disappearing like vapor…
If they don’t, Greenland will be next.
This is starting to smell like appeasement real fast.
So, the thing is… all the nations that care will be financially ruined trying that.
Which would strengthen their enemies…
And they know that.
Geopolitics has consequences. What some see as endless wars others see as opportunity to practice a long held human tradition. War.
It’s a skill you lose if you don’t practice.
Today we were told once again the west is dead. Long live America, and the west… is the western hemisphere. It belongs to the USA. America owns everything on this continent. They keep telling us that. Who is going to stop them when Russia tells Europe… guess who provides you the oil that runs your great nations. Sure would be a shame to leave you in the dark. China gets the rest. Unified, finally.
The new world order.
“The revolution will be bloodless if the left allows it to be”
Can’t believe this is the history we got.
