I can’t even take a nap without Donald Trump being a jackass.

Threatening to intervene in Venezuela is stupid. Every other country in South America thinks Maduro is awful and destabilizing. But every.single.one of them will rally around Venezuela’s right to self-determination if Trump were to militarily intervene.

We get this nonsense because we have an incurious, idiot president who has no sense of history and not enough gumption to look up Venezuela on Wikipedia and maybe see why this is a really bad idea.

I’m personally of the opinion that US intervention into Venezuela would be far more destabilizing to South America and the world than letting the other countries in South America deal with Maduro. Colombia and Brasil have a vested interest in keeping things calm; they don’t need thousands of refugees streaming over their borders with Venezuela.
