Venezuela is a Deep State trap. The successor to Maduro is a hard-core socialist thug too.

Are you saying that Juan Guaidó is no better than Maduro?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

As long as he's espousing socialism, he's merely going to be the meet the new boss/same as old boss guy.

Juan Guaidó Is NOT a hard-core socialist thug.

It is difficult to find any Latin American leader who is not some sort of statist or has collectivist views. It goes with the Spanish colonial inheritance. Thankfully the British didn't pay a lot of attention to the internal life of the American colonies. Ironically Gen Pinochet was the closet thing to a libertarian free market leader in Latin American history.

“Venezuela is a Deep State trap. The successor to Maduro is a hard-core socialist thug too.”

“Are you saying that Juan Guaidó is no better than Maduro?”

“Who’s On First?” In trying to make heads or tails of Juan Guaidó, how to factor Leopoldo López? Understanding that Guaidó’s title is “interim-president”, is he simply fronting for López?

Currently under house arrest, López had been imprisoned by Maduro?

In a recent news report, Guaidó indicated he was in frequent - if not daily - contact with López. And López might decide to run for president. And somewhere biding equal time is the now not so vocal Lilian Tintori, wife of Leopoldo López.
