    Sure this is great “move” if you have no morals or ethics… the notion the Orange Pedo will hand over a country and forget about is laughable… she just wants to be next in the trough and will obey the fellon president as long as she can suck the tit, Venezuelans be damned

      no morals or ethics

      What morals or ethics? The medal is just a thing. Trading it for an ideal like democracy for your people (ie, a peaceful bid to try to restore democracy to your country) seems a worthy cause indicating all the more that she deserved that prize in the first place.

        The cozying up to a convicted felon, rapist, fraudster, pedophile, war monger part?

        Machado does not want democracy, she wants to be “appointed”

          Like every world leader flattering & gifting the douche (a problem that might resolve itself in a few years) to evade extra hardships from the US? Have you been asleep? That’s classic diplomacy in this sort of situation. Except for the warmongering part, the US’s problems aren’t everyone else’s: the US can fuck themselves for all they care.

          No sense in faulting someone working with what they got. They’re in no position to challenge the US.

          Machado does not want democracy

          They already had an election robbed by falsified results.

            Exactly and look where that got us. Flattering one of the worse human beings alive today has not slowed him down or even curve his behaviour for the better

            They already had an election robbed by falsified results.

            Yes and Machado was not a candiate in it… if she were peddling for that last election to be ratified, I would be more understanding but she just wants to be annointed the new puppet head of Venezuela

      When the enemy has no morals or ethics, what do you do?

      The US has always wanted puppet states in the Americas. Sure, she’d be beholden to the US, for now, but she may be better than the Maduro regime, and the people voted her in too.

        I feel you want me to say you are supposed to sink to his level? isn’t that what most Americans are complaining the Democrats are doing?

          Democrats haven’t sunk to that level at all. Wtf are you talking about. Dems have written strongly worded letters asking for violence to please stop, protested a bit and blown some whistles. Meanwhile MAGA and their paramilitary (ice) have gone around killing people. They are not the same.

          Not suggesting violent retaliation, because that is what the right want - they’re trying to provoke violence, but there are other non-violent disruptive behaviours that could be enacted

            I’m talking about their movement towards the right. Democrats are far right compared to most actual leftist party in the world
