Trump said that Venezuela’s new leader, Delcy Rodríguez, would help the United States run Venezuela. She quickly said the opposite.

Trump said Delcy Rodríguez was sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and would act as a partner in letting the United States run the country.

“She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again,” he said.

Less than two hours later, Ms. Rodríguez — who was Nicolás Maduro’s vice president — delivered a televised address to Venezuela that made clear she viewed the United States as an illegal invader that must be rejected.

    Global problems need global solutions, and the current American government is absolutely a global problem.

    The whole world is sick of America trying to fix the world because we fuck up everything we touch. You really want us fixing this shit ourselves?

      They don’t have the stomach for it. They can’t inconvenience themselves enough to stop it, either. All that American hate is projection.
