Trump: We're going to run the country....Our oil companies will take over theirs...We have a 2nd attack wave ready if

[highplainsdem]

necessary...

Paraphrased, but that's the gist. He loved repeating, over and over, "We're going to run the country."

At least until an acceptable puppet regime can be installed to do the bidding of the Trump thugocracy and US oil companies.

1. It's just that the president is more honest about it this time. It's NOT the first time the USA has done this

Maybe even to recruit this thug for his regeime.

11. He wants some of that glory that W. Got after 9/11 just by repeating the words ""war on terror"

[Hugin]

13. He wants a "We got him." moment so bad.

Feels entitled to it. Along with the Nobel prize it will surely render.

[CanonRay]

12. That worked so well in Iraq

[Raftergirl]

17. Right !!! Like they're gonna welcome us with open arms

16. What happens if this turns into a jungle war?

There are extensive rainforests and jungle areas in Venezuela. What happens if we get dragged into that kind of war? Is Trump going to send in his dope-ass son-in-law and Steve Witless to get us out?
