In reply to the discussion: Trump Goes Cold On Bolton Over Venezuela: He Wants To Get Me 'Into A War' [View all]Perseus
(4,341 posts)27. "We are better off with Putin in charge than trump"
You are kidding, right?
If you listen to Bolton explain the situation in Venezuela, and you have a grasp of the reality in that country, then you would understand that Bolton is 100% correct, and that he understands very well the situation, the history and the repercussions of keeping the Maduro regime alive.
You may not like Bolton, neither do I, but we cannot become fanatics and just because someone we don't like says something we dismiss it immediately, we have the ability to analyze, to learn, and this time Bolton is right.
The danger is that the buffoon is taking orders form his daddy who wants him out of Venezuela, and my question to you is, if Putin wants Venezuela, is that a good thing for Venezuelans and the hemisphere?

A war with Iran would make Vietnam and the Iraq debacle look like a walk in the park.
