3:09Now PlayingHow is ANYONE Surprised by This?
Trump launched a military attack on Venezuela late Friday night, and Hawk addresses the complete lack of surprise this should generate for anyone paying attention. For months, Trump telegraphed this move against Venezuelan President Maduro without offering any coherent explanation for his fixation on Venezuela. The timing of the Venezuela bombing raises questions about priorities and foreign policy decisions being made in the middle of the night.
Meanwhile, Trump pardoned a former Honduras president who trafficked 400 tons of cocaine into the United States, yet Maduro remains the primary target. The contrast between pardoning cocaine traffickers and bombing Venezuela highlights the inconsistency in Trump's approach to Latin American leaders. No case has been made by Trump or his administration explaining what specifically makes Maduro such a threat compared to other regional figures.
The Venezuela attack was entirely predictable given Trump's rhetoric, yet many seem shocked by the military action. Hawk questions how anyone could be surprised when Trump has been building toward this Venezuela conflict for months. The illegitimate Maduro government presents problems, but the selective outrage and military response against Venezuela while pardoning major drug traffickers defies logical foreign policy. Trump's Venezuela obsession finally manifested in bombing campaigns without public justification or congressional debate about attacking another sovereign nation.
