Maduro might be checking the train schedule

@Tom-K said in Maduro might be checking the train schedule:

Love him or hate him Trump taught Putin how a "special military operation" is done correctly.

I am coming to the conclusion that as the story develops it was less a special military operation and more along the lines of a hostile commercial asset appropriation that just falls shy of a mob style racketeering operation.

The good news is we apparently killed 32 Cuban special forces.

People are starting to ask if they were a protection force on loan or an occupation force.

You have to wonder if Greenland is next. They have been accused of smuggling in snow to the US.

Now this is personal.

I can honestly see no legality in the action however moral it may be if a Venezuelan elected leader takes control.

Meanwhile, Taiwanese consider their doom.

It wouldn’t be legal, though it would be forgivable and defendable if our intentions were anything but pecuniary, which they don’t seem to be.

Wait - does that not make him an illegal immigrant?

Pisses me off that Illegal immigrants come here and get all these benefits. Look at all these free helicopter rides he’s getting.

I know. I had to pay through the nose for that shit in Hawaii.

Cuba is probably next. Maybe this will be Trump’s long term legacy… Gotta give credit to how the military handled the Iran attack and now this operation. It’s like a Tom Clancy novel.

Anyway… clearly I’m no expert but there seems to be limited time before the power vacuum can lead to years of chaos if not careful.

Reuters: Venezuela has issued an emergency decree instructing police to track down and detain anyone suspected of backing the U.S. attacks on the country.

Interesting dynamic. If you can believe Trump, he is running the country now (proxy via the VP chick) so who would give such an order?

You know, 1% of me is enjoying this American Might… remove bad guys, invest in resources, take over Cuba, take over Greenland…. We’ve made big moves before, but it’s been a while…. We don’t have Alaska and Hawaii just because we asked.

[jon-nyc]

Even then we bought Alaska and in the case of most other overseas territories we wrestled them from another colonial power. Never invaded a democracy and took their land before.

[AndyD]

Yet. Greenland would be a first.

Megyn Kelly embarrassed herself one too many times playing cheerleader on Fox.

[jon-nyc]

Machado getting desperate.

Maybe he'll share his FIFA prize with her.
