Imagine some foreign power might use a black ops team to abduct Trump at gunpoint and render him for trial and punishment abroad.

Statement from Cato VP Clark Neily: Courts probably won't rule against the rendition. Yet Trump has chosen to bypass the constitutional provisions designed to cabin the president's powers in using force against other countries. And an indictment does not supply him with those powers.

In short, the three main reasons you can trust a stranger not to do something terrible are:
1. It’s illegal
2. It’s wrong
3. It’s against their self interest
They’re not a perfect trifecta, and things slip through, but usually ONE of them can support the load.
But not today.

There's an entire entrenched regime in Venezuela. So if this were truly our intent, the conflict has only begun.
This is like a foreign policy infrastructure week announcement.

The Maduro precedent is that no national leader is safe and we should volunteer our own to be the first to get got
As a member of the domestic opposition who believes Donald Trump to be illegitimate and unconstitutional executive, I hereby consent to any foreign power entering the US through force of arms, abducting Trump, and trying him under the laws of your own nation.
Since apparently this is how it works.

It's illegal for the president to relieve student loan debt. It's completely fine for the president to unilaterally decide to have the head of a foreign nation black bagged on foreign soil.

You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."
