    Republicans largely harbor no such fears of Venezuela becoming a similar quagmire.

    They harbor no such fears about any of the quagmires they get into because they are all heavily invested in the military industrial complex.

    Their aim is not to liberate Venezuela, but to destroy it and steal the oil.

    if trump slaughtered a child under the washington monument, congressional republicans would ask “why this man has not been nominated for the nobel peace prize”.

    that so called dsa members defend a war against venezuela is what baffles me.

    I hope conservative voters are watching, because I’m pretty sure they have no appetite for this.

    Ugh who the fuck am I kidding
