What will this president do to continue to exert his power over Americans? Like Mary Trump’s book, “Too Much & Never Enough,” Donald just wants more and more, at the expense of all of us, Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Immigrants, every person living in this wonderful country.

Now, he has invaded a Sovereign country, not to change the regime, not to stop drugs traffic, but to seize oil for the oil companies, and he intends to use our hard-earned taxes to do it. Plus, the threat of putting our troops there to protect the oil. Also, remember, besides oil reserves, Venezuela has a huge gold reserve, ore reserve, lithium, many resources that he wants to tap into for himself, his family and his buddies.

And he’s trying to get it for himself. Blowing up boats was just a cover for his attack. Are we waking up? Is it finally sinking in? And according to the briefings, the plan now is “wishful thinking.” He’s never had a plan for any chaos that he’s created.

Extending healthcare subsidies has been pushed aside. He hates the ACA because it was from Obama. Do we think he cares? Of course not. It’s all about revenge.

In the president’s sights are Greenland, Colombia, Cuba and Mexico. He talks to FOX about it. It’s all about money and power. He’s decided he can be just like Putin. He’s even stated that “well, Venezuela is part of the United States anyway” on national TV. Also, “we own the Western Hemisphere.”  

Interesting that he planned this attack on the weekend that Jack Smith’s deposition went public, and we are still demanding the Epstein files, and this is the Jan. 6 anniversary of the insurrection at the capitol, which injured 140 police officers, when Trump called for the hanging of his vice president, and refused to stop it.

Our leaders in Congress, both parties, must come together and stop this madness before it’s too late.
