#1 Well, all right. We will tell the Marines to cool it.

#2 Marines with MREs and Choco-Pies would be quite popular, I'll wager.

#3 Why would we waste US Marines on your idiot place?

You already did your place in dumbass.

#4 Yep, you did this to yourselves, we don't need to add to your body count.

Sorry, you're on your own!

#5 B-52's and Fuel/Air bombs come to mind.

#6 Venezuela, the end result of socialism. Tell me again why the Dems are in favor of socialism.

#8 Seems they really want us to violate them. It is the only way they can save things is to get the US to take over.

Tough shits kids.

#9  Tell me again why the Dems are in favor of socialism.

Same reason Madero is in for it, POWER. They'd rather destroy an institution rather than give up power. That's why, if you haven't noticed, they're trying desperately to take Trump down even if it means the end of the last vestiges of the old (and gone) republic.

#10 Might I recommend that, instead of The Marines, we send 'em a few boatloads of "Community Organizers?"

#11 "who would meet with a crushing response from Venezuela"

Obviously they've never witnessed what just a Rifle Company of Marines can do to an enemy. Ask an old Iraqi Republican Guard guy who survived an 'encounter'.

The 'crushing' would be a bit one-sided and not in the direction you think, Sra. Rodriguez.

#12 If Maduro could skip straight to the nationbuilding, without out all the icky BOOMS and POCKETA, POCKETA, POCKETAs, he'd go for war.

#13 Sounds like an official invitation to intervene. We'll get back to you.

#14 So Marines won't be there to restore order when the mobs are stringing former government officials up from the lamp posts.

#15 mission of mediators

Sorry, but the Marines are busy. Send in a few brigades of SJW's. One-way tickets, of course.

#16 I guess they are pining for the good old days, where J.D. Rockefeller would ask if he could borrow the Marine Corps for the weekend to solve his problem.

#17 #15 can we send Danny Glover and Sean Penn too? Sort of a USO for SJWs.

#18 Ya know, Napoleon said to never interfere with an opponent when they're screwing up.
So the Marines can sit at Gitmo and wave...
