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.

    Well, a bunch of them did something against it, they just failed. That’s how their democracy works, if more than half of the country wants somethings, the other half is along for the ride. And if only quarter of voters don’t want something, they’re not only along for the ride, but they get the shittiest deal.
