      “How dare you imply that the President’s intention was self-centered and at the expense of the good people of Venezuela! He would never!” is what I imagine the people downvoting you are thinking.

      Alex, show us the correct answer on the screen…

      Oooh, sorry, whatever you call yourself…

      hahahahahahaha worked…

      Well those fucking empty oil reserves and diesel prices sure as fuck don’t think it worked.

      Who would have thought sanctioning and sabotaging a small country’s oil industry into the ground for the better part of a century would mean it’s not very useful when you need it to cover your other oil war.

      But I guess it’s not too late to start and loose a war with Mexico over their oil.
