The Past Six Years Have Been Really, Really Hard For This Country


To state the obvious, the past six years have been really, really hard for this country.

And they've been really tough for our party. Just ask Steve. They've been really tough for our party. And together we made some really, really tough decisions -- decisions that weren't at all popular, hard to explain

#5  A President Biden wouldn't have damaged his party as much the present holder of the office. Just saying.

#6  "the past six years have been really, really hard for this country"
And who's been in charge during those six years?

#1  From the article "Argentine news outlet Infobae notes that, if this allegation is true, the current Venezuelan government would have to explain who approved dozens of legislative initiatives and executive orders previously believed to have been signed by Chávez between December and March 5, the date of his official death. "

#3  22 December I'd what Zi've heard. Who knows? Plain fact is he was either dead or in a vegetative state for several months.

I am still take with the entire criollo funeral and then finding out tropical temperatures were not conducive to making a wax doll.

#4  Salazar is planning to testify in New York, according to reports, that Cabello is the capo of the Cartel de los Soles, named after the Venezuelan military uniform due to the high number of members believed to also be serving in Venezuela’s armed forces. The Cartel de los Soles specializes in trafficking cocaine in Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, and the United States. The government of Cuba has also been implicated in aiding Cartel members with finding trade routes in the Caribbean less accessible to law enforcement

#5  What 3DC said. God-Given-Hair is the de facto ruler of Venezuela having the backing of FAN, the Venezuelan military, which has even more generals than the U.S. Army.

Venezuela is nothing more than an extremely efficient South American kleptocracy.
