Dems have had this plan for years. Venezuela was to work out the bugs.
China has always been the practice to try and figure out how to establish permanent power of the people and provide them a reasonable standard of living as long as they agreed to be a subjugated people.
Russia and China were practice countries on how to establish a never ending oligarchy and keep the people subjugated. They would be provided a reasonable standard of living, as long as they didn’t try to be self-determinate.
Venezuela is just one more domino that is down on the way to world domination.
