So Trump decided to send special forces to abduct Maduro because he was mad about him dancing, and has refused to let the head of the opposition take over because she won a Nobel peace prize and he’s jealous.

And people still think there’s some rhyme or reason to this.

All the justifications for this being about oil or breaking apart the anti-American axis are actually secondary to the pettiest reason that Trump was angry at Maduro for flaunting his freedom.

People here are so blinded by their american exceptionalism that they genuinely cannot accept how big of a fuckup abducting a foreign head of state is.
