Trump said the U.S. will run Venezuela until a "proper transition can take place,"
as he defended Saturday's military strikes that resulted in the capture of President #Nicolás #Maduro and his wife.
"So we're going to stay until such time as we're going to run it, essentially, until such time as a proper transition can take place." Trump stammered to reporters from Mar a Lago.
Trump later told Fox & Friends that Maduro and his wife, #Cilia #Flores, were being brought by boat to New York where they'd stand #trial.
He said U.S. #oil #companies would head to Venezuela to operate in their oil reserves,
and the military is set to #attack #again if necessary to secure the effort.
