I'm sorry, I missed the part where our operation put Guaido - or anyone other than a Maduro flunkie - in power in Venezuela.

Yeah, me too. I mean, it's not like there was a 4 year window for the previous administration he worked for to do something about Maduro or anything.

And yeah, that "Maduro Flunkie" will probably just pick right up where he left off I bet. I can't think of anything that's happened recently that might give her any pause at all...just business as usual amirite?

 

 

 

I feel like you actually missed the point...of your own post. I'm not agreeing with Pete now, or defending his criticism, but you were clearly trying to excoriate him for his original comment about Maduro, which Trump has done nothing with this military action to address. His original concern is still valid.

It still pisses me off that someone has to be frozen in carbonite for a trip across a galaxy that has near-instantaneous light-speed travel. I'll never forgive that bullshit.

...you also claimed to be an 80s/90s era Republican?

I have voted for every non-MAGA GOP presidential candidate since 1980. That streak is current.

@snarlcakes Well, sure. But inre: regime changing empire building, no.

Part of Booty's logic was Trump did it to distract from a failing economy, which is a lie.  

 

 

Correct. It's all about distracting from child rape, money laundering and sex trafficking.

Since you're so bad at analogies, let me help you out:

The Noriega Precedent for Maduro’s Capture and Prosecution

Trying a dictator has already been tried—and courts rejected all his legal defenses.

 ET

Critics calling President Trump’s capture of Nicolás Maduro unprecedented and illegal have short memories. We’ve done this before, and the courts blessed it.

In December 1989, President George H.W. Bush ordered U.S. troops into Panama to capture Manuel Noriega, the country’s de facto military dictator, on federal drug-trafficking charges. Like Mr. Maduro, Noriega had been indicted by a U.S. grand jury. Like the Venezuela operation, the Panama invasion occurred without congressional authorization. And like what will now happen with Mr. Maduro, Noriega was forcibly brought to the U.S. and prosecuted in federal court.

yeah, i suspect more distraction (stars align some times) from Epstein. Still waiting on the 90% of documents not released. Not that anything will actually happen of course. 

Relative Venezuela, my gripe is only the further extension of executive power. Maduro is shit. This is probably best for Venezuela long term (short term might be a shit show). But, now what? Back to the neo colonial days of the early 1900's in South America? I'll pass.

@shooter For 30 years I believed in preemptive wars, supported major military engagements, a strong police force, closed borders, providing tax breaks to corporations and the wealthy knowing it would trickle down then I saw President Trump and decided international cooperation and economic development and diplomacy is better than military intervention, and that police forces needed to be defunded, and all people are good people and we should open the border and provide illegals with home loans, and children should have the right to decide if they want to mutilating themselves, and it’s important that they learn about CRT in school, and our employment interests are better served by DEI than merit, and the rich are really the problem and we need to tax them and home ownership is really only a manifestation of white supremacy so it would be better to have the government take them ….  Makes sense.  You sound like someone with a strong mind.

Dumb, even for you, mcMurt.  BTW, your fake profile / persona is even more lamely disguised than Hickory's.  Your forgot to say "free cheese" from your earlier cut-and-paste rubber stamp rants.

@shooter Boy I’ve got to meet this Mcmurt!!!!!!   Sounds like my soulmate. But smart to deflect.  There’s no logic to your change in politics (or on our end belief).  One doesn’t go from Bush to Walz in ideology.
