This is the part that terrifies the globalist class: Trump didn’t just win elections—he shattered the myth that history flows left by default. Latin America watched elites sneer at him, watched him fight anyway, and watched results follow. Bukele proved order beats chaos. Milei proved austerity beats rot. Trump proved sovereignty beats submission. The NGOs screamed “dictator” because their grift depends on dysfunction. Ordinary people chose safety, dignity, and growth instead. That’s the real Trump Effect: permission to reject failure. Once that switch flips, it doesn’t flip back. The Americas aren’t drifting right—they’re course-correcting.
Thank you for this, Roger. Meanwhile, the aging "No Kings" protesters are taking a break from "Murder She Wrote" reruns, and along with their more vigorous and hard-core communist brethren (can we still use that word?) are marching in Times Square to prop up DICTATOR Maduro....you just can't make this stuff up. History may not repeat itself, but it contains their game plan. Forced Collectivism just hasn't been forceful enough!
If the US would simply stay out of Latin American affairs the region would be far better off. Why has the left risen time and time again? Quite often it is a direct result of US interference and the population hoping for a better future. The US then destroys their economy and the right rises again only to steal the country blind. I dare you to name one country in Latin America where this has not been the norm.
The elites throughout Latin America look north knowing the US is their escape option. Imagine if the countries would band together and create the Latin American states. They could be one of the wealthiest regions in the world yet neither their elites or the US will ever accept this.
Trump is trying to rectify the damage the US has done for decades if not longer...also to blame are the Jesuits and the Spaniards who invaded South America to begin with...also the slave trade...Bolivia and other countries were rich in tin and other important elements, as well as oil...the Indigenous People had no way of fighting guns and cannons...the Spanish invaders/Catholic church also brought the Inquisition with them...even now acres and acres of the Amazon were plowed to make way for private jets at the latest climate conference...
Trump is simply raping the country yet again as he declares the oil was stolen. Do you really believe the US oil companies are going to pay the Venezuelans a fair price for the oil they extract?
Trump is facing massive corruption from all sides...Venezuela was a beautiful country, its people have been suffering for far too long...also its relationship with Cuba and the drugs coming from China and all the corruption across the Caribbean...I think Trump will handle the oil companies like he does everything else...
Neither Chavez nor Maduro ever posed a threat to any American. At the time he imposed the sanction their economy was already in tatters. Obama was just another neocon.

Well said, Roger. Trump and America First do not mean "America alone." It means America leads!
Carry this success- based, conservative momentum into the U.S. 2026 midterm elections, this November.

So many powers aligned against "Making the Americas Great Again", but China hardest hit! This triumphant article from last July hasn't aged well: https://voiceofeast.net/2025/07/18/the-new-china-venezuela-partnership-is-challenging-u-s-hegemony/
Hear, hear!
If the people are happy sbout it I would think President Trump did the right thing.

Three words for you Alan. Tren de Aragua.
And? These thugs were granted legal entry into the US by lets go Brandon.

I traveled extensively in Venezuela prior to Chavez and the poor were suffering terribly back then as well.
But the real point is the US does not have the right to kidnap another country's president.
So what if Venezuela is close to Cuba - their country, their affairs.
Chinese drugs are crossing via Mexico. Venezuela is much too far away.
Obama sanctioned both Chavez and Maduro for their corruption and the risk they posed to Americans. https://www.military.com/feature/2025/11/03/venezuela-2025-realities-drug-transit-claims-and-international-law-dimensions.html
