Huh? The US has already committed what can easily be considered an "act of war" against Venezuela by indiscriminately blowing up what they say are "Drug-Running Boats". There's a fricking naval fleet in the Caribbean.

This would be an outright act of war, unless the nation of Venezuela is labeled a terrorist state, which it hasn't been.


Muh "sphere of influence"; muh "Monroe Doctrine"; muh "US Security threat"; muh "National Emergency"; muh-etc-etc.

They can play all 52 cards in the deck if they wanted to -- including The Joker (which is who we are for accepting any of this war BS.)

When has Trump ever announced a strike before we do it?


Don’t worry. I’ll wait.

This is exactly what you voted for by wanting Kamala. She would have let everyone continue coming in.

They will claim it's "justified" based on whatever nonsense reason Princess Karoline give them at pressers. (but it'll still be funny watching them cope )

The Praetorians already gave the Emperor a pass on NOT stopping the Ukraine war "in 24 hrs" -- or, AT ALL, AND his gifting Z hundreds of billions in EXTRA funds.

In 2016, I started a thread where I called Trump the "Rorschach candidate." He says words, his collective fills in the meaning however they choose to interpret it.

It turned out to be pretty spot on.

I struggle with this. If this were true, would we really announce it before we did it?


When dealing with a dictator, who was not duly elected, and who lacks the power to do anything about it?

Absolutely.

It's actually being polite and hoping that a false President can come to his senses and understand the game is over

Semantics. The modern method is an air campaign and spooks behind the scenes.

It’s a lot more than semantics. I support the latter but not the former.

This particular and latest Trumpian warmongering policy is actually about punishing AND co-opting Venezuela for their trade with China and BRICS partnership, and away from the crumbling USD. It is a "threat" --- to The Bankers.

This is belied by Maduro offering everything implied in your post to Trump to avert this.
