Good thing the US doesn't have a king, amirite?
None of this would happen in a Westminster style parliament.

Trump keeps lying about how Venezuela “stole” from US oil companies. Here’s what really happened. Venezuelans know their own history & that’s why Trump’s oil gambit could become the focal point of a resistance. They won’t unite for Maduro, but they could come together to defend their patrimony.🧵
This is why Venezuelans nationalized their oil over generations:
“The right-wing strongman Juan Vicente Gómez, the military dictator who ruled Venezuela from 1908 until his death in 1935, granted concessions that left three foreign oil companies in control of 98% of the Venezuelan market.“

FACT CHECK American companies never owned oil or land in Venezuela, and officials didn’t kick them out. Venezuela, following Mexico, Brazil and Saudi Arabia, nationalized its most lucrative sector in 1976 and developed mutually beneficial partnerships with American and other firms
