President Donald Trump said Saturday that the US is “going to run” Venezuela in the immediate aftermath of the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

“We’re going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition,” he said during a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. “We don’t want to be involved with having someone else get in, and we have the same situation that we had for the last long period of years. So we are going to run the country.”

Trump did not offer a timeline for how long he anticipated such a transition of power would take.

    Should do the same with Iran.
    Control the oil that is fueling China.

    1. This is also a backhanded slap to Canada. With control over Venzuela, the US no longer needs our oil and gas and doesn't have to assist in our exporting it.
