Venezuelan president Nicholas Maduro claims that an explosion near a speech he was giving was an assassination attempt with a drone.
Fire officials say that it was a gas tank explosion at a nearby apartment was the cause, but being a dictator, Maduro is using this as an excuse to crack down on any opposition.
He has called on Trump to help.
I agree, Trump should help… the people of Venezuela.
I suggest Trump provide the anti-Maduro resistance with some JDAMs, they are far more accurate than a homemade drone bomb.
We’ve been there, done that, and had nothing but troubles for our pain. All. Over. The. Globe.
The older I get, the more non-interventionalist I get.
Venezuelans brought this shit show on themselves just like the cubans, nicaraguans and bolivians. Let them solve it.
I think a private effort — private charity, not government activity — to send a boatload of scoped hunting rifles with ammo to Venezuela would be a very good thing.
I made a comment in the past that Venezuela needed several pallets of Mosin Nagants. Fighting Communists with those rifles do have a certain amount of poetic justice.
