No, I say looking at recent history, it makes no difference.
When has regime changed proved positive for us?

Swapping Joe for Kamala helped us out.

I didn’t realize that there were pro- Maduro voices on the American Right. Learn something new every day.

There isnt. There are educated voices that realize regime change has never worked.
I've asked you a couple of times and you cant answer.
Sanction work. Use them.

I didn’t answer because each of my posts make it clear I oppose the US intervening militarily. I just assumed it was a given that everyone on the Right would loathe Maduro and want him out. I stand corrected.

you dont oppose regime change, so how do you propose we do this?

How we are. Pressure. Isolation.Threaten his narcotics cash flow. Make Maduro as vulnerable to the Venezuelan mob as possible. Encourage a Ceaucescu or Quadaffi outcome. Without American boots on the ground. That’s a bridge too far.

Special forces are definitely on the ground if we're posturing here.

Not sure about that. But I bet they could be there in an hour.
I would bet there are hundreds of Venezuelan CIA assets on Maduro . He’s truly reviled. Venezuelans want him dead.

I have no doubt we have CIA and other special ops on the ground. Hell, we have been using them in Africa in wars that arent ours.

Not a problem with this at all..
But why haven't we staunchly defended our own borders for the last 25 years?
Why haven't we nipped the Mex-cartel action in the bud 40 years ago?
Why haven't we defended American manufacturing and business since the 90s?
From what I've observed, our philosophical "defense" policy doesn't seem to be so much about "defending" or "preserving" America's true interest at all.
I don't disagree with any of this. Trump is changing all of these things.

Yep, it’s well past time to stop playing paddy cake with the idiots in our own hemisphere, imho. Monroe Doctrine, or something like that. Should also overthrow Havana, finally.

Probably gonna happen tomorrow or Sunday night.

How’s Libya working out numbnuts?

You want Maduro to continue terrorizing the Venezuelan people? You want millions more people to flood into America? You want the richest country in the history of South America to continue to be the murder Capital of the world? You support this Narco organized crime State that has murdered thousands of people, is flooded with Cuban bureaucrats who have plundered the country, and that supports all of our enemies? Why the frick would any American support that? I understand why an American wouldn’t support direct military action, but why the frick would any American be against Maduro going out badly in the very near future?

Completely agree. We are less safe because we allow these paltry countries to give a foothold into our region to foreign powers that hate us.

Trump's pulling troops from Romania. How come you don't mention that numbnuts?
(The other dictator besides Quaddaffi in the post you were replying to was Romanian.)
