General Discussion

Gave me nothing except Venezuelans are mad at dumpie/United States and one article why dumpie wants
regime change, current President embarrassed dumpie when he picked the wrong winner. I've picked the
wrong winner in a lot of races or games, but I sure don't want to kill anybody over my poor guessing.

In 2019 during Mr Trump's first term in office the US President recognized Venezuela's then-opposition leader Juan Guaido as the country's interim president.

"At the time Juan Guaido called for the military to defect and recognize his government over Nicolas Maduro. Well it failed," Dr Sabatini said.

"It was deeply humiliating for Donald Trump. He even invited Juan Guaedo to come to his State of the Union address, recognized him as the president, saluted him and then it all collapsed."

Dr Sabatini believes Mr Trump doesn't want "to lose" and that is why he has been careful to avoid saying this is about regime change. "He said it's only taking out narco-terrorists, that means if indeed this fails to produce a regime change that he secretly wants … he does have an escape hatch and can say 'mission accomplished'."
