    Cue “I declare bankruptcy!” GIF

    I don’t understand how after listening to him talk you can think “yes the us is running Venezuela now”

    A president has attacked a sovereign nation with no authorization from Congress, kidnapped its head of state for no other reason than “making money from oil” and uhh drugs I guess. But legitimacy of the whole thing aside, do you think he’s competent enough to “run” a whole other country?

    And how do you imagine the average Venezuelan is taking this? “Oh welp guess we are ‘run’ by the Americans now, better go apply for a job at Exxon”
