Y'all do know that the Central and South American countries hate when we interfere, right? That maybe the best bet here is to support them non-militarily? Get Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and all the other little countries to help them out?

That's the thing. The TDS is making people freak out and turning them into middle school opposite day or wear-your-underware-on-your-heads-in-protest day. The ability to make decisions on common sense does not happen unless it aligns with resistance.

Somebody wearing a MAGA hat could invent a Household Cold Fusion reactor that costs $20 /year, completely safe, and runs on a bag of Funions a month and Resistors would be digging coal mines in every Audubon Society property in the US to resist.

Trumps foreign policy advisers are where, the really smart one (s) have already exited via the revolving door and I'm not even sure Trump knows where Venezuela is on a map.

Trump can barely keep promises to our current allies


How's he going to help this guy Juan Guaidó send him an autographed copy of the art of the deal?

would be a great idea but most of those countries have their own issues

I would hope trump would not intervene Militarily But when

US President Donald Trump officially recognised Juan Guaidó as the legitimate president of Venezuela just minutes after the latter had said he would take over the executive powers.

this backs the US in a corner ...
