Now that China and Russia are putting troops in Venezuela to bolster Maduro sadly it may force Trump’s hand.

Why? Why do we care whether the guy who won the election gets to stay, or whether the guy who lost is installed in his place ? When did Congress declare a war against the president of Venezuala? When was the Constitution’s requirement for a declaration of war by Congress, repealed?

Since we are trillions in debt and yearly deficits, any new government initiative requires borrowing. Why should we borrow from China to fight China in Venezuala?

When did America’s roads and bridges get fixed, allowing us to focus on distant countries instead of our own? The highways in my region are still covered with potholes!!

Because I don’t want a Russian mi!itary base in Venezuela or the Chinese and Russians getting control of the biggest oil producer in SA. Neither should you.

It likely will not come to armed conflict. This is sabre rattling to support the efforts of Venezuela’s lawful, constitutional national assembly to rid themselves of a tyrant that circumvented the Venezuelan constitution to get elected.
