Trump Just Inspired the Dumbest Damn Coup Plot in LatAm History, Complete with a QAnon Crazy
BOUNTY HUNTERS?
Gringo adventurers have been trying to pull off South American coups for about 200 years—and failing miserably. But the survivors of this op are in their own class of stupid.

CALI, Colombia—A small mercenary force led by former U.S. military personnel attempted to invade and conquer Venezuela over the weekend.

Headlines about the op have embarrassed Donald Trump’s U.S. administration even more than earlier failed efforts to oust the putrid dictatorship of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, and Trump is saying he had no hand in this thing, which might just be true.

But there’s no question the conspirators thought he’d be pleased, and pay cash, if they succeeded.

Just a few weeks ago, on March 26, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo promised very big rewards for "information leading to the arrest and/or conviction" of the top people in a Venezuelan regime that the United States no longer recognizes: $15 million for Maduro himself, and $10 million each for four of his top officials, all charged by Washington with drug trafficking.

So, yeah, $55 million in rewards, that's a bit of an incentive for would-be Rambos.

[The Magistrate]

1. Comedy Of Fools And Errors It May Be, Ma'am

But people face firing squads for this sort of thing, or languish in jails in perpetuity. The Maduro regime has every right to take these people seriously, and treat the matter according to the pretensions of the persons involved.

2. They seriously hoped to murder him. He knows U.S. American right-wing policy toward leftist leaders.

Clearly, there is the intention to not allow ANY Latin American countries to keep leftist leaders at all, as the covert ops and propaganda war all start even during their first Presidential campaigns.

Dirty, non-Democratic, greedy monsters clearly feel this hemisphere has to be all white, right-wing controlled. No exceptions. The darker a Latin American leader is, the more vicious the war against him.

3. Doubtless That Was Their Intent, Ma'am

Clearly their intent far outran their capabilities. That might matter in a violation of criminal law but it means nothing when directly assailing a government. No one then has to take into account whether the person taken in arms had any chance of succeeding in his aim.

Oh this looks good.
