Trump’s Maduro show trial is a farce to distract you from the Epstein files & hasn’t it worked!

In his book, The Room where it happened, Neoliberal Hawk John Bolton goes into detail at the attempted coup 2019 by Trump against Venezuela and as Trump ratchets up an enormous fleet off the coast.

It’s a fascinating insight into how deeply involved Trump’s first term was in the attempted coup against Maduro and provides some insight into Trump’s current thinking.

Trump’s concerns as outlined by Bolton were Venezuela empowering China, Cuba and Russia. It was also to appease the Venezuelan-American community who strategically had all moved to Florida to provide a powerful Republican voting block.

Trump’s desire in 2019 was for military action which bewildered even a war monger like Bolton…

“Trump insisted he wanted military option for Venezuela and then keep it because “it’s really part of the United States”.

…Bolton said this aggression surprised him, but it would get worse…

“Trump, as usual, was having trouble distinguishing responsible measures to protect legitimate American interests from what amounted to vast overreaching of the sort no other government, especially a democratic one, would even consider.

…when Bolton is the voice of reason, you are in deep trouble.

This time around Trump built and built and built force off the Coast while running an illegal extra judicial assassination campaign against any boat they believed was drug running.

That culminated in the illegal kidnapping of Maduro which lo and behold just happened to remove all mention of the Epstein files from the headlines, just as it was revealed that there is another million documents yet to be released.

The timing couldn’t be more perfect for Trump and it has conventionally removed the Epstein Files from the news agenda.

I am absolutely cynical enough to believe Trump’s haphazard and illegal kidnapping of  Maduro was partly driven by Trump’s need to remove Epstein from the headlines. The fact he’s left the remaining Venezuelan regime intact points to this being a stunt as opposed to serious foreign policy.
