So you’re throwing a coup and not calling it a war, got it.

„I doubt“ = „Definitely“
Trump is so ridiculously obvious at this point.
2017 – 2025 has forced me to acknowledge the stupidity of the majority of Americans.
I used to give people the benefit of the doubt, but that was clearly stupid on my part.

In the same way that Putin still is not at war in Ukraine. It’s a ’special military operation’…

Trump thinks he is a man with courage just remember he found a way to get out of serving his country I can’t stand looking or listen to him. I hope all his enabler go to prison

It occurred to me what and why certain things are happening. Rather than experimenting with line stepping, tradition breaking, and outright disgust for constitutional rules, he is going to start a war or two so that he gets wartime powers. It’s the easiest way to be the supreme leader he desires to be.

People forget he’s not really in charge of all affairs despite how he acts. He ran to stay out of prison and handed the keys to other people on some things.

One of the Colombian political memes has to do with Iván Duque, our previous right-wing president, stating that Maduro „has his hours numbered“ (because of political pressure from his administration, and the first Trump administration).
Someone made a website counting down the hours. Looking it up, it seems to be dead, but if it were running the counter would be at around 60000.
So, yeah. I’m not a fan of Maduro at all, but the history with these statements is in his favor (especially considering the sheer incompetency of the Trump administration).
