For some reason this will be another “the U.S. is a generous country” and we will send billions in aid to rebuild their country while I drive on some POS roadway to get to a bridge that ‘s got rust all over the structural steel.

Then somehow millions of the US taxpayer money will line the pockets of some well connected Venezuelan officials that will kick it back to some U.S. govt official.

This coming to the aid of EVERYONE ELSE on the world is old and played out.

But even Trump will give our money to rebuild another country.

if a democrat was president now it would cost us the same billions in aid, plus half of venezuela would move here as refugees, so we got that going for us, which is nice

I don’t know but the people of Venezuela should get on their knees and praise God that the woman in charge of Venezuela is corrupt as hell. Could you imagine Maduro in charge of this disaster response. It would be as big of a disaster as the earthquake.

Pelosi's drug cartel money comes mainly from Mexico I believe. She might even bring in more if it hurts her competition.

Their oil revenue should be used to pay the costs of everything.

Time for the Biden Crime Family to start an international aid charity, as the Biden Relief Initiative with Hunter as the CEO making a minimum of 5 million a year, access to a private jet, security team, ground transportation, best blow and hookers, and a NYC apartment near the UN.

In hindsight, Trump could have left Venezuela alone and just devoted his efforts to fighting the evolving socialism in America.

Socialism is getting its push from people who have hijacked the democrats. Democrats by nature are socialist but they weren’t the extremists like squad or the hijackers, the Muslims

Watch as civilians, first responders, and others pull wads and suitcases full of American hundred-dollar bills from the collapsed buildings. Cash is turning up in huge amounts across the rubble.

People are asking: Is this why colectivo leader Caballero was reportedly demanding American teams go in a different direction?

We'll use the money from the sale of their oil to pay for any humanitarian efforts.

I have no issue with the US providing humanitarian assistance to any nation that has suffered a massive natural catastrophe, I do think there should be keen oversight to ensure the aid money is used wisely and effectively.

Peter Thiel in a speech at Aspen said that this disillusionment such as you describe will turn the democrat party into socialist/communists in part because the youth don't see the path to prosperity that the older folks saw. While you may be a republican, there is obvious disillusionment. And that's why I posted a few days ago that it is up to the youths to fight this stuff back. We older folk already did our part. Best of luck with your country in two or five or twenty years. My ashes will be spread by then.
