Trump’s New Friendship with Venezuela’s Freedom Fighter

President Trump has called the Venezuelan opposition leader for the first time, cementing his friendship against Maduro. The Daily Caller reports:

President Donald Trump made his first known phone call to Venezuela’s Juan Guaidó on Wednesday and reinforced his support for the opposition against dictatorial President Nicolás Maduro.

Trump recognized opposition leader Guaidó as the legitimate president of Venezuela last week after Maduro won re-election in a contentious nationwide vote. The U.S. government cited the election results as illegitimate because the Maduro regime has been known to jail and torture political opposition and protesters. (RELATED: Trump Endorses Venezuela’s Opposition Leader As Legitimate President)

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said during a press briefing Monday that Vice President Mike Pence had spoken with Guaidó on the phone on several occasions to offer support, but did not reveal if the president had spoken to him.

Sanders released a statement Wednesday indicating that the president had a phone call with Guaidó — potentially for the first time.

America should be restoring democracy in renegade regimes of South America, not letting Russia and China extend their influence there.

IF TRUMP SPENT TWO WEEKS WORKING IN VENEZUELA EVERY VENEZUELAN WOULD HAVE MONEY IN HIS POCKET. TRISH REGAN DID A GREAT JOB LAST NIGHT. SHE PICKED UP MANY LATINOS AS PART OF HER FAN BASE. OUR MILITARY HAS TO MASTER THE 72 HOUR LIGHTNING WAR. ANY SIZE VICTORY COMES IN 72 HOURS AND WE GO HOME.

Will this be a friendship like President George Washington and Simon Bolivar back in the 1770’s?

The citizens need guns and ammo. The dictator took them all away. Just likePelosi and Feinstein would do

Make no friendship w/an angry man..Proverbs 22:24 KJV .I think the U.S. should get out of business w/other nations and mind it’s own business! Our founding fathers said that we should NOt, as anation, make any agreements and/or have any political dealings w/other nations! But, did anyone listen? NO, we just think that giving money and trying to win friends and influenec natioms will work; IT will never work!
