MacCALLUM: You have about 100,000 dying from drug overdoses, most of those drugs from from Venezuela and other places

CROW: That's actually not true. The majority of the deaths by drugs in America are the result of meth and fentanyl. Almost none of that comes from Venezuela

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

Reporter: Are you going to demand that Delcy Rodriguez allow opposition figures to return or free any political prisoners?

Polls show that 70% of Americans oppose the war in Venezuela. But at this CBS News staff meeting, that number feels much smaller.

President Trump said on Saturday that Delcy Rodríguez was sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and would act as a partner in letting the U.S. run the country. Less than two hours later, Rodríguez made clear she viewed the U.S. as an illegal invader that must be rejected.

If Trump is not actually in charge of Venezuela tomorrow as he claimed today calls for his immediate resignation must get very loud. For it is not clear that he actually understands what is happening around him.
Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez has addressed the nation, urging calm and demanding the immediate release of Maduro.

Arc de Trump or Arch de Narcissism?

This isn’t about history or patriotism. It’s a psychological tell. A president so insecure and obsessed with himself that he needs monuments, and gold trim in order to feel like a king. And we’re forced to watch him spiral in real time.

Trump, and his base, clearly have not read (or watched) much Shakespeare. Cue Hamlet, Act III, Scene 2:

"Methinks [s]he doth protest too much."

For over 400 years, behavior such as Trump's has been a sure sign of underlying guilt.
