Leftists actually defend this piece of shit. His days are numbered.
Armed troops loyal to President Maduro opened fire on the good Samaritans trying to bring food aid to desperately hungry Venezuelansâkilling two and wounding another dozen or so. According to Maduro, âthe aid is an attack on the sovereignty of my country. It is not for outsiders to decide what or how much Venezuelans should eat. That is my prerogative.â
Major media outlets in the US variously characterized the Armyâs attack on the unarmed victims as a âclashâ (Reuters), âstandoffâ (CNN), âshowdownâ (New York Times), and âface-offâ (Wall Street Journal). An off-the-record explanation was offered by a CNN reporter: âlook, Trump has already taken sides against Maduroâs wrecking of the countryâs economy. Clearly, that is an intrusion on its sovereignty. Just because the results of Maduroâs policies arenât liked by some citizens doesnât give them the right to collude with foreigners to undermine them. We are merely presenting an unbiased description of the situation.â
