That's your response every time Trump screws up.Quoting an unnamed source, insiders have said, according to anonymous reports, and on and on and on.......Well, today in yet another interesting thing that comes out of Trump's mouth, WH insiders have said that Trump has been wondering if he can invade Venezuela.
Now, it's one thing to talk about a hostile takeover of another company when you are a CEO of another company, but it is something quite different to talk about invading another country like Trump is currently doing.
Trump repeatedly suggested invading Venezuela, stunning top aides – report
Trump brought up the subject of an invasion in public in August last year, saying: “We have many options for Venezuela, including a possible military option, if necessary.” But the president’s musings about the possibility of a US invasion were more extensive and persistent than that public declaration, according to the Associated Press.
The previous day Trump reportedly took his top officials by surprise in an Oval Office meeting, asking why the US could not intervene to remove the government of Nicolas Maduro on the grounds that Venezuela’s political and economic unraveling represented a threat to the region.
Quoting an unnamed senior administration official, the AP report said the suggestion stunned those present at the meeting, which included the then national security advisor, HR McMaster, and secretary of state, Rex Tillerson. Both have since left the administration.
The administration officials are said to have taken turns in trying to talk him out of the idea, pointing out that any such military action would alienate Latin American allies who had supported the US policy of punitive sanctions on the Maduro regime.
Their arguments do not seem to have dissuaded the president.
A grim-faced Tillerson stood alongside Trump the next day at his New Jersey golf course at Bedminster as the president warmed to his theme.
“We have many options for Venezuela, this is our neighbour,” Trump said.
“We’re all over the world and we have troops all over the world in places that are very very far away, Venezuela is not very far away and the people are suffering and dying. We have many options for Venezuela including a possible military option if necessary.”
Where is the screw up by Trump in this instance? Did we invade Venezuela and CNN forgot to tell anyone?
This is why we have Mattis
As he didn't you again have the left trying to make nothing into something he considered something but in the end didn't do it I suspect this is a common practice in all administrations.

The only reason the U.S. would invade Venezuela is for their oil.

He's already said Putin was right in invading the Ukraine.
Make no mistake, the orange turd is at the edge of his seat itching to use the military to kill other people and take their shit. It is burning a hole in his pocket like nothing else.
An invasion of Venezuela? For what? Existing? He used it in his bullshit 'travel ban' because he had to pick two countries that weren't Muslim to get it through the courts, but Venezuela has no significance to the US. Other than being an easy target for a wannabe Mussolini.

Seems Trump has invaded you’re head.
And most in Venezuela were all for it.
Prepare for the worst: Venezuela is heading toward complete disaster
Not here...nutcase
Reminds me of the familiar meme going around about how Obama bombed and screwed with a half dozen countries, and you guys supported him getting a peace prize, while Trump hasn't done much of anything yet, and you guys are screaming and crying that world war 3 is upon us.

Obama got peace prize for "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples". But there is still conditions where military force is morally justified.

But there is no moral reason to invade Venezula.
When Donnie attacked Syria twice based on lies, the libs in the MSM cheered him on. The only time they have ever approved of anything he has done.
Is this not proof the DNC media is controlled by the ruling class?
Donnie is taking orders from his husband...Vlad....he will only do what his honey wants...
Could you be any more of a biased idiot??
I think not.

He got the peace prize for doing nothing. Hell even he didn't know why he got it.

Extraordinary efforts? Half the middle east was set on fire, terror networks drastically expanded from US funding of Iranian backed groups, Russia engaged in war......
And in the mean time we bombed a ton of places, with little effect.
What extraordinary effects?
Meanwhile, you are freaking out because Trump........ did nothing, but said stuff.
I'll take words over actions any day. You keep talking about Venezuela, like he already sent over the fifth fleet, and the Marines are already securing the beach.
NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. Trump asked a question, and was rebuffed. Nothing has happened.

What the op isn't telling you is that he and the other board morons wished he would invade somewhere just so they could have a legit reason to complain

Well they sure spend a lot of time looking for something to complain about.
If they can't find something, they make it up.
I'm sure the blue wave in NOV will make them happy. LOL
