To clarify, I don't think *they* have an endgame. They are more interested in content creation for their siloed base to stew in than figuring out what comes next 

Case in point

Using a sledgehammer to swat a fly. Hopefully the poor fool Venezuelans hunkered down and didn't suffer many casualties.

I’ve been wondering whether he’ll Gazafy Caracas.

that's the thing though. If you are going to capture and try Maduro, do it for stealing the electoral process in Venezuela, not a bunch of garbage stuff. But Trump would never do that because stealing the next US election is exactly what he dreams about every night.

Hilarious to see the Cult of Trump trying to spin this when they just saw their orange god pardon the former President of Honduras for the very same crimes.  

No quid pro quo from Maduro. Yet.

Any ends justify means mentality ignores the basic premise that every action has a reaction.    

 It doesn’t matter if Maduro is an evil drug dealing dictator.   You can’t just go on your own and invade his country to physically remove him.    This changes the rules for the entire world and creates a very scary new landscape.   This will permeate well beyond Caracas.   China, Russia, and whoever else sees themselves fit enough can now go on their own and take what they want by force.  

God help us all for what this lunatic has planned next.

Setting aside the fact that Trump already tried stealing an election five years ago and guys like Lance Gooden remained silent then (so he can kindly f' off)...

What do any of us get as a benefit for this action having been taken? It's clearly not about drugs (after all, this administration just pardoned a former Central American leader who was implicated in drug trafficking), it's probably not about oil given the economics of handling Venezuelan crude, it does nothing to bring stability to the region... If anything it will destabilize over the long run.

As far as Maduro is concerned, he obviously terrible, but so is Vladimir Putin... And we all see how our President sucks up to him. So it clearly ain't about freedom or liberty or anything like that.

So who benefits? Not any of us, but it provides entertainment for MAGA I guess lol
