  1. Just demand unconditional surrender that Truman did of Japan and get this over with soon . Maduro can't be this stubborn . He would do a 20 year stretch in a federal prison but better than killed

  2. Nothing distracts the public from a failing administration like some good old fashioned saber rattling. Trump knows his days are numbered and he is looking for something to take the heat off of him.

  3. Another forever war that's going to cost thousands of lives and cause a dominoe effect in the region. Large numbers of refugees heading North to the U.S because that's where they believe a "better" life is waiting for them.

    CNN,Fox News, Washington Post, all claiming this will be another Panama instead of Iraq. Once you mess with cartels and their money the gloves are off.

  4. You can tell that CBS is on the Side of the Drug Cartels. Just like they were on the side of Iran and Hezbellah and Yemen and Hamas. They NEVER say a bad word about China or Russia. Just more Trump bashing. If America attacks Venezuela CBS will want to give Venezuela plenty of warning..

  5. I guess mass homelessness, major drug epidemic since 2012, Millions out of work, no jobs due to major companies leaving U.S. due to tarrifs, $38 Trillion debt, mass school and church shootings with AR-15 by white kids, and the food and healthcare scare is not enough for this wicked "Regime" to fix these problems alone and not do as usual and steal another Country's oil and resources. Like Iraq, Afghan, Syria, Libya etc. SMDH

  6. So Trump wages war with venezuela and claims it's about drugs coming into the US; and how he is going to save American lives.

    Cause America first right?

    Laughing Out Loud!

    So they amass multi billion dollar Nuclear powered battleships , fighter jets , attack helicopters and submarines ; all to shoot at drug boats with civilians technically on them?

    Cause you aren't firing on the Venezuelan army obviously , so they are killing alleged civilians/ drug traffickers in speed boats on the Atlantic ocean .

    If this wasn't so stupid it would be saddest lie ever told to the American people, like they couldn't come up with anything better than that.

    Laughing Out Loud , anyone who believes any of this is smoking something real good.

    The highest grade , best of the best from venezuela, courtesy of Meduro's so called kartel.

    They were better of just saying , hey we just wanna remove this guy because we wan't to exploit his countries resources and he's getting in the way ; were the USA, so who's going to stop us.

  7. I know president Trump is not thinking about doing the land invasion in Venezuela because Maduro president Maduro armed 4 million Venezuelan citizens so ain't no way they can do a land invasion if I know the heat on 4 million of his citizens and I know the military knows

  8. I said. Watch out hypersonic missles could. Sink all of those ships. Including the air craft carrier. Venezuelans have hypersonic missle capable of of hitting any where is the United States including the District of Columbia or dc

  9. It doesn't matter how much oil they have, an invasion would be vietnam and iraq all over again. Sure you can wipe out the government in a week, but you're talking about 10 years of costly occupation and for what? Crude oil that needs even more capital to refine? How about we not invade and save billions in our national debt?
