"We're going to run the country"

How?

Nobody in the Trump Administration can even speak Spanish!

My only two concerns at this point is
1. What is the price tag?
2. what does China and Russia cook up now?

Those weren't already your concerns when you voted for Trump?

Golly, what changed?

Historically US engineered regime change has gone poorly.

It has? You said it went well in Hawaii and PR and possibly Iraq. I'll believe you when you can say where it went poorly.

Also, I couldn't help but notice your two rock solid examples of regime change working is two territories that were claimed by the United States.

Has it ever gone great when we don't take the land outright?

Greenland also looking for an answer to #35.

How could anybody make a successful regime change list and leave out Germany and Japan?

Or Texas!

"successful regime change list and leave out Germany"

The rest of the world wouldn't have worked together
to bring about Regime Change in Germany in 1945
If Germany hasn't regime changed themselves in 1933.

For anyone questioning the legality of
attacking Venezuela and abducting
their leader:

Remember we're talking about a highly
corrupt leader, a known criminal who used
his high office to make billions
for himself, and has manipulated
elections to stay in power, has used
his military against his own citizens,
has protected his corrupt friends and
punished his political enemies.

And the President of Venezuela did some bad things too.
--Jeffrey Mandel

If you think those two concerns would have made me vote for Kamala Harris, you need to think again.

Okay, but I'm wondering what outweighs the concerns of "the debt actually becoming a problem."
Or the concern of "How the the two other major actors on the world stage might use this kind of rash action against our interests."

And I don't see how "getting rid of Mexicans" outweighs that, but maybe that's just me. But I don't think it's that.

I think your comment means there is no possible scenario in which you could have possibly voted for Kamala Harris, for any reason. Trump could have raped all those kids, you'd still vote for him.

You're coming to terms with that rape stuff being true anyway, and actually it's not even a thing that concerns you any more, because it never really did. Which is what I already think about you.

You'll let me know if I need to think again about that.

"US oil companies would be going into Venezuela"

I am 100% sure Trumpers have no idea what they're doing here, like, there isn't a plan that the rest of the world is "in" on to make this succeed, because that would mean having to share.

So what I'm thinking is,
What if you're say Royal Dutch Shell, and this ---- happens?
Or OPEC, of which Venezuela is a charter member.

I can't imagine how the rest of the world would want to change, or could survive the change, to accommodate this. And they've already got a good thing going where one hand washes the other.

Seems like this just turns the United States into more of a pariah nation.

The goal is: Become Ungovernable.

Under United States law, as determined by the Supreme Court, a President cannot be held accountable for official acts as President.

So where's the legal basis to charge Maduro with anything?

Why would a different standard apply?

"calling it a war crime belies a lack of historical. Context."

Oh, there's plenty of context.
But what historical context makes it "not a war crime?"
What historical context makes it "not a Federal crime?"

"Are you aware of how many times this country has engaged in regime change?"

How many times have we engaged in Regime Change unilaterally in South America since you were born?

Next stop Greenland.

When does Boaz love black people getting government checks?

When they're addressed to Boaz.
