Headline slightly sensationalised compared to article content. But he did say he’d go to Venezuela if he loses.

Trump should fear failing Putin more than anything the USA would do.

Does Venezuela give consent? I guess that's never mattered before anyway.

Tabloids are not gonna work for me

I'd ask him to promise, but I know what his promises are worth.

Does he know they don’t speak English there?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

He barely speaks English as it is

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

That would be awesome he'd get a fair'trial there Im sure.

Mr. Trump, you don't need to run there, start early and you can walk.

Can we all chop in for a ticket to send him now, save him the trouble of trying to come up with nicknames for Harris and Walz that they don't turn into positives? Like "Tampon Tim" ...."He's going to stop the red wave!" Which is how Trump ended up building Walz.

Edit: "chip" in. Economy of course.

I'd rather this become terms for jailing him now. Sounds like a potential flight risk ahead of sentencing for his 34 felony counts.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

As usual the US is doing everything it can do destroy Venezuela smh

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Getting Maduro out would help Venezuela a lot. Sending Trump, not so much.

[–] Otakulad 6 points 2 months ago

If he is being serious, please take all the MAGA Kool aid drinkers with you.

[–] norimee 6 points 2 months ago

Haven't the Venezuelans to deal with enough shit?

He is like "Who around here is the most down, so I can kick them even more?"

[–] Red_October 6 points 2 months ago

Of all the times for that treasonous orange shit to lie, why did it have to be this one?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

My question would be, "why wait?"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

I've heard this before. What a baby.

[–] Professorozone 5 points 2 months ago

Wonder what Venezuela has to say about that.

[–] Sam_Bass 5 points 2 months ago

Interpol being notified? Escaped felons should be

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Is that a promise?

[–] Resol 4 points 2 months ago

I bet he'll run for president there too, and then fail, and then flee to another country that's most likely allied with Venezuela.

[–] carl_dungeon 3 points 2 months ago

Any way to make that legally binding?

[–] Fedizen 3 points 2 months ago

In context it was more of a stupid joke:

he'll have to go to venezuela because its safer now that they sent all their criminals to the US

[–] SomeGuy69 3 points 2 months ago

So there's Epstein's second "island", I see.
