Assuming that the Venezuelans actually were very unhappy with Maduro, do you think they'll be any happier with Trump as their dictator now?

Trump did call South American nations the bringers of rapists, murderers, vicious child smugglers, and all of the above worst things you could say about a person into this country.

Why would Venezuelans or Mexicans or Columbians or so on trust Donald J Trump?
Especially after the missile strikes!!!

Like remove the whole dictator asshole thing argument and focus on, you see missiles coming at your home and killing / injuring your people?
This wasn’t a quiet, quick, carefully orchestrated initiative to kidnap the dictator piece of sh-t like our assassination of Osama Bin Laden was. This was chaotic, destructive, and harmed civilians.

Trump didn’t even press Congress about this in private, although shared intelligence with Oil Companies before and after the attacks took place. He admitted while talking to reporters.

Would should’ve kidnapped the dictator asshole then allowed the people to select themselves a good leader, we feared retaliation for this coup so now it’s under our careful watch. Which retaliation would be justified since we only get involved once pulled in, one of the rare instances we got Oil Barons giving The US Govt money to invade and do a coup against the govt for their Oil.
Note: None of those strikes hit Oil Tankers or Refineries or anything.

You’re still being ridiculous. The Venezuelans WERE miserable under Maduro. There’s no assumption.

Also, Drumpf isn’t taking over Venezuela. The country is not joining the US and Drumpf is nothing like a dictator.
It’s hilarious how you went from “no kings!” to literally supporting a dictator overnight. Do you actually put ANY thought into the ridiculous crap you post here?
The biggest problem that Drumpf caused was leaving Maduro’s VP behind. Nothing will change because she is another cartel shill. Defying Drumpf means she’ll be arrested like Maduro. Defying the cartel will cost her life and probably those of her family. Drumpf almost certainly knows that and will use the necessity to keep intervening to justify installing a US approved head of state. Who will also NOT be a dictator. Maintaining the illusion of democracy will create a political ally of the people such that they will support their new leaders favoring the US in trade negotiations.

[msc545]

Chaz, listen, brother. You don't really know this. Once again, you've not been to Venezuela, and you don't know how they feel. Insisting that they are or were unhappy has no validity in the absence of any knowledge.

[purplepoppy]

Name me one country where everyone loves their leader. If you look at the UK once you take into account of all the political parties any PM is despised by around 60-70% of the country. Following Trumps logic you could over throw any leader.

[msc545]

Yes, and that's Trump's entire point. According to him, he is right about everything, and he can do anything he wants with no consequences. I don't agree with him that he is right about everything, obviously. But in terms of doing what he wants with no consequences, he probably is correct about that at this point, which tells you how corrupt the US is.

[RandomGirl42]

Thank you for inviting me to share.

I'm sure some people will be happy. I'm sure some people won't be happy. Just like people anywhere today.

Since happiness is all a choice.

[msc545]

Only somebody that doesn't know much about Trump would say something like this.

[exitseven]

Trump will not be a dictator, he will be more of a manager. He wants to develop Venezuela's energy to make the country prosperous like it was in the 60s and 70s. At the same time American oil companies will make a ton of money and out energy costs will decrease for most Americans. It is really a WIN, WIN, WIN.

[msc545]

No, this isn't going to be a win-win-win. It's going to be a fucking loss. How do you presume to know what it is that Trump intends to do?

[exitseven]

He has already laid out most of it.

[msc545]

He says what he says. Usually when his mouth is moving and he's making noises, that means he's lying.

[exitseven]

@msc545 can you name one other president that has kept more campaign promises than DJT?

[msc545]

Can you name one other president that has lied more than Trump has?

[exitseven]

Yes, Joe Biden. It was not so much that he lied so much but he was just so bad at it.

[msc545]

Yes. Name the lies that Joe Biden told. You have an issue with Biden only because Biden is easy to pick on, and you didn't like the fact that he was a Democrat. You're going to live to regret these beliefs of yours.

[exitseven]

His uncle was eaten by cannibals. He marched in Selma with Martin Luther King, He broke Nelson Mandela out of prison, he drove tractor trailer rigs, he graduated law school with honors, he denied being "The Big Guy". He is such an easy target because he would change his schtick depending on the crown he was in front of. If he was in front of Jewish peole he would be raised in a Jewish neighborhood, if he was in front of Hispanics he would come from a mostly Hiospanic neighborhood. He lied so much he could not keep it all straight.

[msc545]

Problem is he never said any of those things

[Anonymous]

No. They voted for Machado but Trump is still throwing a temper tantrum about the Nobel Peace Prize she won over him so he won't let her take over like the people want.

[DrPepper12]

Invasions for oil ALWAYS work out well for both!! Relax guy!

[Pterodon]

Fuck yes. They know they could be the richest country in S America and are excited to get their oil industry up and running. Plus they’re sick of socialism

[blackeagle007]

Greenland and Cuba hopefully won’t find out the same

[ProbablyClueless]

Judging by the jubilation, it seems that they are

[msc545]

Equally valid assumption based on the expertise of the people who create propaganda for the U. S. What you're seeing are propaganda films. I would under no circumstances assume that what you see is actually true.

[ProbablyClueless]

That is certainly a possibility!

[ProbablyClueless]

And a very real possibility.

[msc545]

I think it's really a problem, perhaps not with you, but with others who automatically assume that because the US government says that the Venezuelans were not happy with Maduro, that must mean they actually were. Of course the government is saying that under the circumstances. What else are they going to say? That the people of Venezuela miss him?

[beefcakebradybatson]

No. They'll soon want him gone.
