I think he’s already well versed on these techniques:

The court days earlier seated a new elections council ahead of a vote expected this year in a battle for control of the National Assembly.

The unilateral appointments to the council were especially disheartening to some moderate opponents of Maduro who had been trying to reach an accord with the government for minimal guarantees for a free and fair vote.

The new National Electoral Council includes names of members of Democratic Action, who Allup said he does not recognize. Critics say that including the opposition party members is an attempt by Maduro’s government of giving it legitimacy.

Don’t give Roberts any ideas.

Which reminds me....

Isn't Roberts now the most powerful man in the U.S.?

In a 4/4 tie in SCOTUS (which is happening regularly), Roberts is the swing vote, which means that, he can stick it to Trump almost every time. Trump can issue regulations and executive order, but that man Roberts, will overrule him every time.

The 'art of the deal' Trump, needs to make a deal with Roberts, otherwise, Roberts remains more powerful than Trump.

I used to think this sort of thing would be impossible here. Now I think it is likely.
