    Trump is longtime con artist and grifter who is ALSO building a kleptocracy around himself. Maduro is also.

    The US stole their oil and tankers recently.

    The US fucking stole the PRESIDENT of Venezuela.

    Both true and both a fucking outrage. But what does that have to do with my statement?

      So dont believe what the long time con men and grifters are telling you, they have a vested interest in stealing Venezuelas oil. The only reason Maduro is brought up is because he was stolen by the United States government for a state show trial. And you use that opportunity to bad mouth a place you probably have never been the leader of a country that doesnt affect you at all.

        Duh. Though they have an even bigger vested interest in forcing Venezuela to accept the Dollar for oil purchases. The Petrodollar is the only thing keeping the economy of the US from collapsing.

        he was stolen by the United States government for a state show trial

        Duh.

        the leader of a country that doesn’t affect you at all

        Nothing wrong with expressing solidarity with the international working class.
