Made the point that 300,000 people die from drugs each year


So that number gets cut in half now, right? Right?

But I guarantee you if anyone besides Trump did this, the MAGA crowd would be crying as much as the anti-maga crowd is now. I'm just trying to point out the hypocrisy.


Maybe, maybe not. I can tell you that as someone who tries to understand real politik, this was a good move and I would have applauded it if it had been made by Zohran Mamdami.

No you wouldn't. But it's completely irrelevant anyway.

Regime change for the sake of regime change is one thing; regime change for the sake of preventing our two greatest geopolitical foes from entrenching themselves in the Americas is another issue entirely. But by all means, let's allow the Chinese and the Russians to establish friendly bases in the Caribbean where they are in easy reach of Puerto Rico, Guantanamo Bay, and the U.S. Gulf coast.


I mean, I totally agree but that's because I lean neocon when it comes to foreign policy. MAGA was decidedly not that, and a few years ago if you asked Trump's base if we should bomb Venezuela and forcibly remove their president in the middle of the night you'd be called a war loving commie neocon/dem.

I want to believe you because I enjoy your "this day in" history posts, but I know that's not true for the majority of MAGA

I don't understand how Trump is able to do this operation without congressional approval.

Just because you are incapable of understanding doesn’t make it wrong. Just because you are ignorant of the powers the President has doesn’t mean he doesn’t have them.
Were you crying when Osama was killed? Or did you understand then? And just can’t understand now?

Yea except this looks to have been a really clean large scale prisoner snatch.

I think the final straw was them meeting with China. Either way hopefully this turns out better for Venezuela.
