    In his remarks, Trump did not clarify what it would mean for the U.S. to “run” Venezuela but said that U.S. oil companies were prepared to make major investments in the country.

    “We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country,” he said.

    Well…

    That’s something that everyone saw coming.

    Remember when this asshat was acting like he was the only voice of reason when it came to calling out W on Iraq?

    This seems even dumber than Iraq.
