It will be good if Señor Maduro is removed from power, but there’s no guarantee that we’ve Made Venezuela Great Again.

But, for consistency's sake, shouldn’t people like BillKristol, Max Boot, Jennifer Rubin, Trudy Rubin, and the rest of the neocons support this action?

With the notable exception of 1988, when George Bush was running against a true doofus candidate, no sitting Vice President has won the presidency since Martin Van Buren in 1836.

In presidential races without an incumbent, Americans like to switch party control of the White House.

ANY welfare system, EVERY welfare system, is going to have fraud, because fraudsters are a lot smarter than bureaucrats. The way to eliminate fraud in welfare systems is to eliminate welfare systems!

There's at least the possibility that they simply don't have enough information from sources they trust. But the financial crisis there is at least in part due to onerous sanctions, and they don't want President Trump to get any credit for it.

Nothing says "no one is above the law" like supporting the shooting of people investigating potential fraud.

Nothing says "no one is above the law" quite like wanting to abolish the enforcement agency for our immigration laws!
