    Just like when he attacked Iran dems are only upset they weren’t informed before and allowed to vote yes, not that he did the illegal actions…

    Then again we haven’t had an official war since WW2 so not like safe guards were doing anything before

      TBH if congress were aware of the operation in Venezuela I would probably be happy about it, fuck Maduro and every other anti-democracy bastard.

      But that’s not the reality of the situation. The reality is Trump did something highly illegal.

        So just like the dems only upset that our president attacked a sovereign nation, took their leader and now claims ownership of, because he didn’t let the dems give him pre approval.

        Again only upset at the illegal act of not notifying congress beforehand.

          Trump might claim ownership, but nothing has actually been done to enforce it. Rubio says he’s expecting Maduro’s people, VP Delcy Rodriguez, to start playing ball as they are now in charge. Hell, they apparently didn’t even try to inform Gonzalez or Machado beforehand to install one of them.

          According to the pentagon, for what little their word is worth, there are no US Troops left in Venezuela.

            Again only care about the paperwork not the actions. And he doesn’t care about Machado so why would he tell her anything.

              In order to install a puppet leader. If only because of Trump’s incompetence, Venezuela is still governed by Maduro’s faction.

                So it would be better if he had put a terrible person who wants to sell off her countries assets?

                  I’m not sure how you’re confused about what my stance is, I’ve been very concise, consistent, and vocal about my beliefs.

                  What Trump did is illegal and wrong and he should be removed and punished.

                  Also, it’s a good thing that Maduro got taken out, fuck that guy.

                  If DNC were in charge then none of this shit would be happening and the world would be a better place. Calling for the destruction of the USA is a foolish simpleton ideal that will cause more death and suffering.

                    You just don’t like having your beliefs shown to you.

                    DNC were in charge then none of this shit would be happening and the world would be a better place

                    Again just like when Iran was attacked they were only upset they didn’t get to vote yes not that the attacks happened
