Then why did Trump say we are assuming control of Venezuela instead of allowing one of the Venezuelan officials to take office? you know, the people who were actually elected and could have taken power

It’s called nation building, something the bush admin didn’t understand in Iraq. Without maintaining the situation a civil war will erupt with the power vacuum formed.

Nation building has proven to be the most effective if implemented by indigenous or internal bodies. People that the Venezuelan people know and trust. The likelihood of nation building through an external third party body, taking power without the trust and support of the people of that country, is much lower

That’s fair, but it’s too early to see who they decide to appoint as interim president. It could come to pass in the coming days. To do that right after though would cause to much chaos.

Which is why the lack of planning is not okay. There were proper ways of doing this instead of the dead of night with no congressional approval. If this was something planned out throughly, we wouldn’t have to scramble to take control of a country that we can’t say for sure won’t view this as us just,,,taking their country from them

Yeah because the western media is trying to manufacture consent for an invasion like use your brain a little or did you learn nothing from the invasion of Iraq? Maria and her opposition government are extremely unpopular in Venezuela, it’s clear you know nothing about the world outside your own borders if you think people are welcoming an actual dictatorship with open arms.

I didn’t say anything about war. You can not engage in a special operation in a foreign country and kidnap people the ruler just because he’s suspected of having engaged in a crime. This is international law 101 and if the US does not respect international laws it sets the precedent that other countries do not have to respect them either.

It is almost 100% solely about oil. If he really cared about the people of Venezuela he would have set up a transition plan for them to rule themselves asap and not extract a resource vital to the countries economy for the first benefit of American companies at the expense of their everyday citizens.

People are genuinely HAPPY and CELEBRATING in the streets now that he’s gone. He fucked his people over, like you said, all so he could get money from the drug lords, China, and Russia. The fear is that those countries will now use Madura as an excuse to justify the Ukraine invasion or an invasion into Taiwan. Trump said we were going to support a democratic transition to power—not take over the country. Like, people saying this was a bad thing are so weird

No instead he did one better, he not only liberated them in THIER OWN COUNTRY. He also gave them jobs with American companies. Someone is gonna need to extract the oil. And they have a labor force. This also helps the Venezuela economy.

Whataboutism deflects from the original criticism by excusing it with irrelevant information. This is especially fallacious when you are arguing on a position with a person you have no clue about.
