Trump's gang says Venezuela Affair not invasion or act of war* but a Justice Dpt arrest with assistance of military.
Nonetheless, USA is going to remotely manage Venezuela's massive oil reserves by remote control, like it or not.
Embarrassing if Supreme Court declares Maduro's arrest illegal.

USA attacks sovereign Venezuela, probably leading to another full-on war. Wait for it!

Silly bugger. They're going to tell Trump he has just disqualified himself -- forever.
Peacemakers don't invade sovereign nations, kill its citizens & steal their president (even if he is an evil mf).
Actually, CIA believed to have knocked off a Sth Vietnamese president who was, ah, uncooperative.

When has an American Congress ever stopped the president from committing war crimes? That is a genuine question, by the way. It would be nice to have some sort of example. If it has ever happened.

I imagine Donald Duck's intervention in Venezuela will result in a mess like that Bush Jnr caused in Iraq.
Detailed initial invasion plan, no thought given to follow-up.
You don't kidnap a President or steal a country's oil without a violent reaction from patriots, which has to be supressed.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
