The boat attack was probably insurance in case Scotus ever rejects his deportations. If he can start a war with Venezuela (no matter how short) then he can deport Venezuelan immigrants legally under the Enemy Aliens act. Just another way to deport people. A back up plan, but one where he can say it's under the guise of making the US safer from drugs.
