What does that have to do with Venezuela?

Maduro won't allow free and open elections. 85% of the nation loathes him. Yet in his version of "elections" he wins in a landslide?

All of this nonsense with "coups" would just be academic is the Chavistas and their Cuban masters weren't solely focused on the Revolution, and instead on democracy.
