I think that's overthinking it. Trump views international politics in very transactional terms: there are opponents and not-opponents, resources that we control and resources that we don't control. Strong countries can dominate weak countries, and a rule-based system that constrains strong countries is bad for the strong countries. Venezuela has resources that he thought should be under U.S. control was governed by an opponent, and the only thing stopping him from taking action was a rules-based system that he doesn't care much about. Thus...we take Maduro out of the country.

lol. No.

Why did Biden put a $25 million reward on Maduro?
