Trump ordered the overthrow of the Venezuelan Maduro regime in 2019 — and the CIA botched it -report

American Thinker-

For the world’s crummiest anti-American dictators, sometimes it’s not just the art of the deal for them in relations with President Trump. The left has criticized Trump for talking to dictators for deals, but now it’s obvious that Trump as president was willing to do more than just talk.

Actually, Trump could play as hard and dirty as the dictators do — no deals, pal — and in his first term, he did.

According to Wired magazine, he targeted Venezuela, home to fraudulent elections and anti-American activity, unleashing the CIA on them.

Wired spoke to eight former Trump and agency officials who had direct knowledge of the matter:

… the Trump administration amped up its efforts around the world to isolate and depose the Venezuelan leader, including by levying additional punishing sanctions against his regime. Much of that diplomatic maneuvering played out in public. But the administration also put into motion another, very much secret prong to the US’s regime-change campaign: a covert CIA-run initiative to help overthrow the Venezuelan strongman.

Which is basically what we have a CIA for.
