Should the U.S. do anything? I don't believe we should. Do you?

I get the feeling we already are doing something and I sense a certain chubby president is thinking about the phrase "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war." This is a perfect situation for a lunatic stuck in a political crisis of his own making - invade a relatively defenseless country to rescue the foreign service employees that you order to stay after a sovereign nation told them to leave. I'll bet his poll numbers rise 10 points and he uses it as a pretext to end the shutdown. It's perfect! #MAGA.

I hope not. America doesn't need to involve itself militarily in that socialist mess. The Venezuelan people voted for it. Let them resolve it.

I agree. If we are asked for help or economic aid I am okay with that but this situation reminds me of Grenada when Reagan was president. Nothing like a little war to divert the populace,

Is that what you call 50.6% of the vote?

Because that's what he won by in 2013 and his only election since then was a fraudulent sham.

Ah, fair point, assuming he even actually got that. I was referring to Venezuelans voting in Chavez and his socialist ideals and voting to change the constitution, etc.

Oil, oil and more oil. That's why they want Maduro out. Unfortunately, their humanitarian premises will fall apart.

Americans should pay attention. Because what’s going on in Venezuela is an in time lesson in exactly what Socialism leads to.

The way to go is limited government and a capitalist, free-market economic system.
That’s the way I see it to. I just wish other Americans would see the political left for what they really are. And would push back against them. Or we to will be on are own way to where Venezuela is today.
