Perhaps America squandered its opportunity to change the government in Venezuela. When Juan Guaido burst upon the scene in January of 2019, declaring himself president, we had our chance. The country was reeling in poverty, and still is. Had President Trump flooded the country with charity relief, or rather gave the food to Guaido to give to his people in his name, Guaido would have been a hero for saving the nation.
The U.S. should have done everything it could to reestablish Venezuela's economy at that time, and have done it all it the name of Juan Guaido.
Instead, President Trump went the opposite direction, slamming economic sanctions on Venezuela. a people who were already poor probably were only hurt worse by those sanctions. When you have no charity for the people, you will have your day of reckoning.
