Members stevenkesslar Posted Saturday at 05:00 PM Members Posted Saturday at 05:00 PM Why is Trump defending and pardoning Latin American leaders who are convicted of trafficking drugs into the US? Piece of shit criminal leader! Trump, I mean. And Hernández too! Quote On 1 July 2021, Hernández had his visa revoked by the U.S. Department of State, due to involvements in corruption and in the illegal drug trade.[13] This measure was made public on 7 February 2022, less than two weeks after he was succeeded by Xiomara Castro.[14] On 14 February, he was surrounded by the national police and DEA agents at his home in Tegucigalpa, after the U.S. government had requested his extradition for his involvement with narcotics.[15][16][17] On 15 February 2022, he agreed to surrender to US authorities,[18] and on 21 April, Hernández was extradited to the United States.[19] On 8 March 2024, Hernández was convicted of three counts of drug trafficking and weapons conspiracy, and on 26 June of that year, he was sentenced to 45 years of prison.[20] On 1 December 2025, he was released from prison after being formally pardoned by President Donald Trump.[21] Ex-Honduran president thanks God – and Trump – for drug-trafficking pardon Piece of shit criminal leader Trump! Piece of shit liar and hypocrite! He just wants HIS Iraq, I guess. Quote

Maybe the drug trafficking corrupt convicted former president of Honduras agree to nominate the Incompetent-in-chief for a Nobel prize. Or maybe it was just shared histories. Quote

Watch the socialists at Nobel bitch about how this is war-like or some nonsense like that. Europeans are almost as bad as Canadians. 🤔 At least we don't have to deport those assholes. Quote

Whatever the bro vibe it's based on some kind of corruption with a smell of sulfur. stevenkesslar 1 Quote
Members Suckrates Posted Saturday at 11:22 PM Members Posted Saturday at 11:22 PM Trump couldnt pull off a coup here in America, so at least he got his WIN in Venezuela. Just a low rent THUG pilfering territory in the western hemisphere. Quote

Or a senile old man who has no clue what the fuck he is talking about. Or just the stupidest dumb fuck to ever lead a strong country (at least before he took over) while invading a weaker country. I watched various interviews yesterday of Smart People trying to make sense of this. Like Richard Haas and Anne Applebaum. Both of whom are the kind of more hawkish people who would support an effort to "liberate" a country like Venezuela in the name of democracy. Which, they both pointed out, had pretty much nothing to do with what Trump actually said. Taking out a leader, despot or not, and saying the US will "run" your country is hardly John Kennedy or Ronald Reagan talking about the ideal of democracy. It is regime change. Which is what Trump said he would NOT do. It does not lower prices, which was Trump's main 2024 promise. So what the fuck? If there is a logic to what Trump said, it is more like the US under Trump will do whatever the fuck it wants in "our" hemisphere. And whatever our oil companies want. Even if they don't know they want it. Oh, and fuck Cuba. And Canada, too! That sounds about how Trump's cruel and petty and stupid and addled brain actually works. Pete Hegseth just added some macho. And Little Marco maybe attempted to add a little logic. What a Former Trump Official Would Worry About in Venezuela That's a great interview from a Trump 1.0 policy wonk - thank you Politico - that comes closer than anything else I have read to explaining how Trump's Big Regime Change Invasion (Or Not?) could make sense, in theory. Emphasis on the words "in theory". I'll quote extensively what to me are the two key paragraphs. But the whole interview is very thoughtful. At least in presenting a coherent argument. Which is something addled or senile Trump proved yet again he simply can't do. Quote There’s two key questions they’d consider as they’re planning this kind of event. Number one is, will it be successful for the immediate operation? Which is, of course, the taking of Maduro and bringing him to the United States to face his drug trafficking charges. How likely is it for that to be successful? There, the assessment was probably very high, and as we saw that was very successful. Quote But there’s a second component, which is what is the likely outcome of this in the days, weeks, months afterward? That’s why in the first Trump administration we always emphasized that the method of a transition is as important as the transition itself. It’s also why I keep emphasizing the democratic leadership inside of Venezuela, because they are the ones that can make sure that this doesn’t devolve into chaos. Some of the things that we would be concerned about, of course, would be: Are there regime loyalists who try to assert power and to try to repress the Venezuelan people and continue Maduro’s legacy? Is there a power vacuum? Again, the best protection against this is making sure that we are backing the Venezuelan leadership under Maria Corina and Edmundo Gonzalez. We have seen this movie before. It was called Afghanistan. We have also seen the sequel, which was an epic disaster. It was called Iraq. Both started with stunning and brilliant executions of overwhelming US military force that quickly achieved very difficult objectives. Both ended with chaos and everything going to shit. The big win? It was getting lots of Americans, Iraqis, and Afghans killed. And Canadians and allies, too! All for chaos and money and blood poured down the drain. Third times a charm? The Trumper being interviewed at least hopes so! But she worries. Which seems like a very good thing to do right now, sweetie. Since she is a Trumper who supports the invasion, what she can't say bluntly is that she worries that Trump is a stupid confused dumb fuck. But she basically says Trump is a stupid confused dumb fuck. She says when he said the US will "run" Venezuela, he really meant the Venezuelan democrat opposition, including their democratically elected President, will run it. When he seemed to downplay and dismiss Maria Corina Machado - who won the Nobel Peace Prize instead of him - she says Trump really meant Maduro's lackey Vice President who is now leading the country. So the big plan for Venezuela is for Trump to be confused and incoherent. Or senile. Whatever. Worked in Afghanistan and Iraq, I guess. Now, just like Senile Joe, Senile Don has his very own invasion he can incoherently try to support. Except Ukraine was Vlad's invasion, which Trump just made look legitimate. Venezuela is Don's invasion. We'll see whether it is the Donroe Doctrine, or just more Donroe Dogshit. But I'm glad at least smart people inside the Trump universe are worried about chaos. Quote

They are always worried, but yet, noone does a fucking thing to dissuade him, they are scared shitless of him, an Old, fat, crazy narcissist . And they are fine with letting him destroy America as long as they have a JOB to go to...... This whole melodrama seems a bit drastic to DISTRACT Americans from Epstein ? But as we have seen before, Trump always has a goal to set new precedents. Once the world gets comfortable with this Venezuela chapter, they wont even blink when it happens in Panama, Greenland and maybe even CANADA. Its just what dictators do, they ACQUIRE territory. Quote
