@SenTomCotton@SecRubio No one made the case to the American people that this was in the U.S. interest. No one asked Congress for authority. If a Democrat did the same thing you’d be enraged. And capturing Maduro is not the whole story - you’ll be responsible for the chaos in Venezuela that follows.
Regime-change operations, military occupations, and nation-building are now “America First.”
People said neoconservatism was dead. They just rebranded!
Trump campaigned on an “America First” platform. Now he wants to "run" Venezuela?
60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Health care is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable.
Trump should address these major crises at home and end his illegal military adventurism abroad.
Our excellent Secretary of State Marco Rubio should explain the difference between the dismissed charges against the pardoned Honduran President and the current charges against the apprehended Venezuelan dictator. Aren’t they both dope dealers who exploited their public roles to enrich themselves? even as Americans died from drug abuse?
Maduro's not a good guy, agreed. But neither is Putin, and Trump rolled out the red fucking carpet for him. It's not about dope, it's about oil (which kinda IS dope).
Just when you think Trump has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.
PSA for @JDVance:
The executive branch can’t sidestep Congress’s role in matters of war and occupation by obtaining indictments. You don’t get to avoid the Constitution of the United States because you brought charges.
