How is this other guy laying claim to the interim presidency? Was there an election?

John F Kerry was criticizing Pompeo and Trump over this earlier.

Pompeo: “We don’t put much weight on what former Secretary of State Kerry has to say. We’re trying to clean up the messes he and Barack Obama left for us.”

I bet there is a group of highly trained and motivated Americans that can react very quickly to security concerns.

Yes, and the people's representatives chose Guaido as the new president, not Maduro.

Why? There’s plenty of oil there. And Russia is trying to get a foothold.

Was there a REAL election for Maduro?!?! Nope. Just a huge farce.

And Mike Pompeo is Secretary of State, not Hillary Clinton.

He won’t let them burn and go back to sleep then later blame it on a video then say what difference does it make how they died.

Except it's Trump in the White House and Pompeo at State Dept., not BHO and HRC. This won't be a repeat of Benghazi!

Exactly.

Hillary Clinton is such a lying treacherous slime. She will forever be tied to Benghazi and how she just fricking abandoned those Americans.

Interesting and thought provoking. Perhaps there are adults in the administration who understand VZ has the biggest oil reserves on the planet and it would be good to be in business with them - especially if they had a pro-west, business-friendly administration in place.

But in any event, I'm sure they'll be coming to you for input, as it is quite incisive.

Through an act that is sanctioned by the Venezuelan constitution. It’s not just Trump - Trudeau, Brazil, and many others are respecting his claim. The new president of our supposed friend/ally Mexico still supports Maduro as does Trump’s supposed puppet master in Russia.

If VZ moves in a democratic direction, yes of course. Why wouldn't we want to be onside trading partners with massive natural resource reserves?

Am I actually being criticized for being anti-Maduro? frick that dictator thug.

I hope we have significant fricking QRF ready to go, with AC gun ships, further air support, etc.

I will not support another Mogadishu, Benghazi, or anything of the sort.

Be ready to rock and roll, no holds barred.
