“Or, if they choose, maybe the 51st state.”>/i>
Venezuela makes little sense to me. They've already offered to out Maduro, just in a stable succession, so the bolichicos remain in power, and along with that give Chevron complete control over the allotted oil fields. There was no mention of how they money would be split - so that could be a sticking point. Or T may want the Chinese out, but there's no mention of that. Chevron has the lion's share of the oil, so maybe they want it all. Nor is there any explanation if T wants a different type of government. The rumor is that a land strike is being prepared with 4,500 troops. Maybe T thinks it will be a red state and PR could be blue to balance out, but invading and taking over V is a bad idea. We'd be saddled with them. One plus - V has some of the most beautiful women in the world, and they're castillano, but you have to be able to afford them. :) I don't want to take over V, but if we do, T will call the shots and he'd likely focus on the money and screw the people. Like a bad King.
