Okay I have no #Intel on #Venezuela or #Maduro. I do not have any idea what I am talking about.

That said, hear me out..

Maduro was apparently a LOT like #Trump - super #Corrupt, arguably #illegitimate, broadly #hated , etc.

Is there any possibility that this was more of an 'extraction' or rescue?

Maduro has connections and knowledge best exploited after he is 'freed'....

Will he wind up a highly paid consultant for #ExxonMobil or #Chevron ?

Did you know that the 18th c. #Danish court had delicate problems?

Sophia of #Denmark married Gustav III of #Sweden when she was 20. It took 9 years to consummate their marriage.

The #king had asked the master of the horse, #Finn Adolf Munck, for sex ed. Munck was to stay close to the bedchamber to assist. His help was soon needed by both parties.

When Sophia fell pregnant, all of Stockholm was atwitter.

If Gustav IV was indeed #illegitimate remains unknown.
