Trump on Venezuela: “We’re going to run the country
The president said the U.S. will “run” Venezuela on a temporary basis.
“We’re going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition,” Mr. Trump told reporters.
The president said “we don’t want to be involved with having somebody else get in, and we have the same situation that we had for the last long period of years.”
“So, we are going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition, and it has to be judicious,” he added.
Mr. Trump said “we want peace, liberty and justice for the great people of Venezuela.”
The president outlined that “all Venezuelan military capacities were rendered powerless as the men and women of our military, working with U.S. law enforcement, successfully captured Maduro in the dead of night.”
The president said Venezuela was in a “ready position,” but he said “they were completely overwhelmed and very quickly incapacitated.”
“It was an incredible thing to see,” he said.
Mr. Trump said no American service members were killed and no U.S. equipment was lost in the operation.

Trump lauds “extraordinary military operation” in Venezuela
The president praised the military operation in Venezuela, speaking at a news conference at his estate at Mar-a-Lago.
“Late last night and early today at my direction, the United States armed forces conducted an extraordinary military operation in the capital of Venezuela,” Mr. Trump said, in opening remarks that began at about 11:40 a.m. “Overwhelming military power, air land and sea, was used to launch a spectacular assault, and it was an assault like people have not seen since World War II.”
The president said “it was a force against a heavily fortified military fortress in the heart of Caracas to bring outlaw dictator Nicolás Maduro to justice.””This was one of the most stunning, effective and powerful displays of American military might and confidence in American history,” Mr. Trump said.

Fuck you Donald Trump!
The US loves to talk about democracy but loves to insert themselves into other people’s countries.
I wonder if Venezuela will be using US currency now and will it be considered US territory like Puerto Rico????
Trump has ruled out exiled Opposition Leader Maria Corina who by all reports actually won the last election in Venezuela. He claims that she lacks the support of the majority of the Venezuelan people. The US really need someone who they can control. They might search and find a Venezuelan exiled and living in the US who they can work with. It’s really a puppet leader that they are looking for as the US would be totally in control. The US Military might be in charge in Venezuela for the foreseeable future.
Who would ever think, that the crazy shit we see in the middle east and Asia, will come to the most peaceful region in the world? This is just the beginning, and just like these other countries, because of the massive oil wells and other minerals, plus the deep division amongst the Venezuelan people, a political fight will for ever continue within Venezuela itself, amongst its own people, not forgetting the army.
I can now see why the Ukraine war continues and all this waste of back and forth talks. Europe better get serious and do what’s needed cause they are on their own, am truly sorry for Ukraine.
We have three powers in the world, two already in action, just waiting for the other one ie China to finally strike.
All that crap happening in Haiti, mastermind by one little man Barbecue and he is still standing, plus who knows, Cuba might be next since it’s the secretary of state home country and TnT will now be looked upon differently. The new Caribbean.
Of course they want someone they can control!
What think this is, a gain of Scrabble?
This is snakes and ladders my friend, the CIA working it’s vast intelligence network around the world.
This is why I said that our “dumb” PM should have seen this coming and pick the side, the US, but he failed.
We live in the real world here..bombs and guns were not make for peace.
“Zone of peace” my Bigfoot.
Get in the room and make the tough deal, and GB and co failed Antigua.
Do you see anyone running to Maduros side now? Not even the Russians or Chinese gonna stick their heads out.
I told this man about this, he didn’t listen, and now we as a small nation will feel the squeeze.
By the way..all my advice were given for free here on this platform, because I’m a philanthropist at heart, not a greedy bastard like some of these politicians.
DONALD TRUMP: ME BUS ME GUN DEM WHENEVER ME LIKE!!! ANY B****C*** DAY OR NIGHT!!!! ME NA NEED NO BWOY FI AH TELL ME WHEN FI BUS ME GUN!!!!
The US will control Venezuela until you can install your puppet to control the oil and other resources. You are an evil, greedy and vindictive excuse of a human being. ANR can censor this since they seem to be afraid to offend you
