Venezuela was primed for revolution even before the USA pulled its little stunt, tbh. Maduro lost his last election so bad that they couldn’t even make up any fake polling numbers to justify it: all the polling places got together and shared numbers showing Gonzalez won by a landslide, and that’s even AFTER Maduro tipped the scale by banning Machado from participating.

BTW, despite her flattery of him, Trump refused to openly back Machado, due to her being a brown woman.
