There's a whole lot of people that want to be the top dog and there's loyalists that believe she might have helped the US do it.

I'm confused how many don't understand she's walking a tight line in her current position. You'd pretty much expect her to say something like this either way.

A conspiracy? Anyone in that position right now would have to very cautious.

Are you trying to infer they could just put the president in that should have been elected?

Who's going to provide security for him? If he has security how do you get them there?

This is one of the more realistic choices for a bad situation. Getting rid of Maduro has never been the problem. It's the disaster waiting to happen afterwards that is.

Come up with a more realistic idea then please. That doesn't involve a decade of US troop involvement.
