He’s speaking as he was already in control of the country. He’s not. Unless they manage to place their own puppet government that the Venezuelan population will accept (unlikely, as typically those are even worse for the population than the government they replace), they’re going to have to put boots on the ground and it’s going to get messy and expensive.
The American people will pay the cost, in blood and tax money, for occupying Venezuela.
Big Oil, weapons manufacturers, and the Trump crime family, will reap the profits from it.
(Edit: and yes of fucking course the Venezuelan people will suffer far more than Americans safe in the imperial core. I thought that was so obvious it didn’t need to be fucking said.)
Every American invasion and occupation is another massive wealth transfer from the poor to the rich.
Socialism for the rich, rugged capitalism for the poor, isn’t that the saying?
Trump declared the VP the current president. That VP declared the US actions are/were BS and Maduro is still rightful president. But she is indeed in charge until he is returned. The Venezuelan government is still pretty much as it was yesterday.

Expensive for whom, though?

Unfortunately, I expect the cost for the Venezuelan people will be far higher.
Ironic how concerned american’s concern still managed to be self-centered and serving, even when they’re the invaders lmao.
I’m thinking this had to be an inside job on some level. There’s enough of a puppet government.

TBH, when was the last time a country of that size got puppeteered like that?
