Even most of the Chavistas are happy that Maduro has been taken out of power. Except for the ones who are also Maduristas and aligned with Putin.

I think this is mostly just trolling to wind up Trump's opponents so that they're making knee jerk reactions that they can portray as "TDS".

"The SANCTIONS ON THAT REGIME DISPLACED 8 MILLION PEOPLE."

Factually untrue. Prior to Trump (the guy you voted for), the sanctions were very limited and targeted, but there were still millions of people displaced and hyperinflation. The sanctions didn't cause the regime's human rights violations, corruption or mismanagement. They were in response to them.

"Just Ending the Sanctions would have stopped the exodus from Venezuela."

What are you basing this on, other than wishful fairytale thinking and ignorance? Most of the analyses I've read suggest that there would have been at most about one million fewer refugees if there were no sanctions at all.

"Was all this for something other than the well being of The Venezuelan People?"

The primary reason is for regional stability and security, in response to the crisis fueled by the Putin/Xi-backed regime that displaced 8 million people. Regardless of what anyone says, everything else is a sidenote to that, even Trump's grifting.

Sheesh people. It hasn't even been 48 hours yet. Did you think that a new government would be magically put in place overnight, or that the existing one would just step down or submit without any face-saving measures?

"Does this make Machado legitimate?
Or Er, Gonzalez?"

Gonzalez is legitimately the democratically elected president of Venezuela, per the 2024 election.

"I really am curious about what the leaders of other South and Central American nations will have to say about all of this."

Most of them are likely in favor of it. You clearly have no idea how much of problem the displacement of 25% of Venezuela's population by the Chavez/Maduro regime has caused to the entire region.

And before anyone brings up Iraq again, unlike that country Venezuela's actually had a long history of stable democracy prior to those thugs subverting it (with Moscow and Beijing's support).

Looks like the talking points from Moscow finally came through.

Venezuela already has a democratically elected president, Edmundo Gonzalez.

This isn't really anything new. The USPS has been consolidating their processing centers for years now. Some letters don't even get postmarked at all.

"This isn't about Social Justice. Or "Democracy", Trump doesn't care about either of those things

Never said he did. That doesn't mean there isn't a valid reason for the US to coordinate with other countries in the region to tamp down on one of the most destabilizing factors in the region. But of course, you blame the US for everything that goes wrong in the world, and side with the despotic dictators-for-life every time.

Maybe you're confused and thinking of a different thread, but you didn't post anything like that in this one. It looks like you're trying to change the subject or gaslight people about what you actually wrote.

'The US created the problem it now seeks to "Solve" in a totally self serving way.
I trust Maduro more than the US excuses for War.
Even if he is corrupt and self serving Too.'

Like I said, you'll fall for any anti-American slop that shows up in your feed. You trust Maduro, Hamas, Putin, et al, over anyone in "the west", regardless of each party's degrees of being self-serving.

"At least he's Venezuelan."

As are the 70% who voted against him, and the numerous political dissidents who couldn't vote because they were imprisoned or killed.

"I said other assassins saw wall-to-wall coverage,"

LOL. You're a terrible liar.

"I am incorrect about several points. I Acknowledge my mistakes."

Okay, fair enough, but maybe you should educate yourself before taking a strong position based on a feeling of "I hate the bitch", as you admitted earlier.

"Its about Control, not Justice."

It's about 8 million people being displaced, causing havoc in the neighboring countries, in conjunction with international cartel gangs. It's no coincidence that the only countries who recognize Maduro as legitimate are the same ones who take glee at seeing "the west" destabilized.

"Link?"

I know you'll probably just ignore this, like you did with the earlier link to the Carter Center, but:

"Not when I win, like I did here."

What exactly do you think you "won", bucko? You're not even fractionally as clever as you think you are, especially in this thread.

"Western Stooge"

It's pretty clear that you'll believe any Anti-American propaganda that gets dumped into your feed.

"Machado is a street thug. The Resistance movement in
Venezuela is Right wing in Nature. They don't want Democracy,they don't want justice, they want Power."

You might as well have copied and pasted that directly from an official statement from the Maduro regime. They're literally saying that about everyone who publicly disagrees with them in any way.

They treated the election observers like "terrorists" in the same way Noem claimed anyone who filmed ICE raids are also "terrorists".

Republicans will suddenly become very worried about this the moment a different administration is in power. Just imagine what Hunter and AOC will be able to do once they get their hands on this much power.

"the same thing that happened in Iraq"

False comparison. Iraq was already contained before the second Gulf War. Venezuela is already causing regional instability with 25% of their population displaced, even worse than the mass migration caused by Syria, and have declared their intention to annex 2/3 of a neighboring country's territory.

#44- the one time I went to Buffalo, a local recommended that I go to the top of the City Hall. It had a great view of the city, the canal and the shipyard.

I also saved a ton of money when I went to Niagara Falls, since the taxi drivers were all ripoff artists, but the day pass for the bus and transit only cost $5 at the time.

"Double thanks for looking so stupid while doing it"

You really are a sore loser.

What point does your point make? Nada. Your point was pointless, for the reasons I gave above.
