Not clear how this is relevant to me. Are you confusing me with someone else?

Trump said that past Venezuelan governments "stole our oil" (presumably Venezuela's nationalizing of its oil industry, making US companies less privy to it).
So he feels the oil belongs to the US, I guess— US oil companies & the US government who has the power to take it.
This is NOT about narco-terrorism. Let's remember that #trump recently pardoned the former leader of Honduras who was convicted by a jury after a three-week trial.

JZ MurdockPres. Donald Trump:
“We are going to run the place.” Venezuela.
He’s openly talking about an illegal, unconstitutional action against another country...without Congress, oversight, or even notification.
The same man who promised he’d keep us out of, wait for it… wars.

Sue Cohen🚨Trump has violated the Constitution by invading Venezuela & capturing its leader.
This is an illegal & hostile #ActOfWar which only Congress can declare
He is officially a dictator & war criminal in national & international legal terms
Everyone involved must be prosecuted

So Nicolás Maduro Moros is accused by Trump of what Juan Orlando Hernández, the former president of Honduras, has just been pardoned from by Trump, if I understand things correctly? OK …
The United States can only begin war with another country through a declaration of Congress. The President’s actions are unjustified and unconstitutional. Military attacks upon Venezuela and the loss of life and property must end immediately.
Bomb the foreign capital, kidnap the president and run the country so that you can pinch the oil reserves.
Hardly subtle from the guy who wants the Nobel peace prize.

"Given his pardon of Juan Orlando Hernández, Trump's kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro cannot be regarded as a legitimate fight against drug trafficking. Rather, it's about getting a piece of the action."

Joachim LykkeSo when Trump decides to go get Greenland he’s just going to fly in and kidnap our prime minister. Great. You have a unscrupulous and clinically insane idiot elected as your president and he wants to own the world. I have absolutely no trust in any of you Americans whether you are pronounced MAGA or if you “didn’t vote for the guy”: Your elected president is a megalomaniac dictator and it’s your fucking responsibility to stop him.
