  1. Trump's desperation to distract from Epsteingate and the violation of Posse Commitatus is going to drag us into another protracted war, if not WW III itself.
    These boats that are being obliterated before the passengers and cargo can even be verified is a very dangerous act. How do they Know that boat had drugs in it? What if they were fisherman? The video doesn't appear to show any visible weapons or even significant cargo. With 11 ppl in an open boat less than 20' long, there aren't too many places to hide.
    Also, Venezuela is a fair distance from American shores. Are we supposed to believe that 11 ppl are going to cross the Gulf of Mexico, uh er, Trumps Pond, in THAT tiny vessel and no visible supplies or water barrels? All it takes is one family of innocent fishermen to get "accidentally" blown up, and then Trump will get his wish- he will get to be a Tough Guy, Commander in Chief of Team America. Thats assuming he isnt charged with Human Rights Violations by International Court.
    If we provoke Venezuela into a serious attack or a Declaration of War, then Trump can still claim to be Mr Peace and Love, tragically forced to respond to keep his Beloved Fellow Americans safe. He shouldn't do it, lots of people dont want him to do it, but he's going to do it anyways lol. He can pretend to be a Master Strategist and enjoy playing War with all those cool toys that he had marched out for his Birthday Party.
    As with the over use of Executive orders, this would allow him to circumvent Congress and Voters on issues that usually require their approval…
    …but over and over and over again that he doesn't need or want our input or permission. Asking for something infers that youre too weak to take it, and Trump will publicly apologize to Biden and hug Obama before he admits to being wrong

  2. If Venezuela gets within 100 m of an American ship they will be shot at and also if Venezuela does that anyway they will become the 51st state before Canada so that will be interesting

  3. Actually I do believe he's just posing as president because he's a dictator and even though he lost he decided he's going to stay and pick a fight with America which he will lose this is all my opinion anyone that don't like it I don't care
