In reply to the discussion: Trump recognizes Venezuela opposition leader Juan Guaid as interim president [View all]Farmer-Rick
(12,792 posts)4. So who voted him in? Not a single ballot was cast for this opposition protester
He declared himself president and Traitor Trump declares himself king. Neither of them are what they declare themselves to be.
Traitor Trump really wants another Pinochet so bad he gets a ....... He wants to be as horrible as Kissinger and Nixon. He really likes provoking and destabilizing. I wonder what Putin gets out of this? Less competition for oil sales? A Russian mobster appointed to sell off Venezuela oil fields....to Putin?
So when Guaido rounds up all the liberals and murders them like Pinochet, like Putin, will Traitor Trump applaud?

Not that Maduro is a good guy, but what makes Guaido in any way shape or form legitimate?

Its not undemocratic. He's following the Constitution of VZ as the legitimate leader.
