In a striking turn of events, an old tweet from Joe Biden has resurfaced, drawing attention to his past criticism of President Trump's stance on Venezuela.
The tweet, which accused Trump of admiring "thugs and dictators like Nicolas Maduro," has gained renewed interest following recent developments in the South American nation.
According to Gateway Pundit, President Trump successfully orchestrated a military operation that led to the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro. During the 2020 election, Biden had pledged to "stand with the Venezuelan people for democracy," criticizing Trump for allegedly being open to discussions with Maduro.
"Trump talks tough on Venezuela, but admires thugs and dictators like Nicolas Maduro," Biden remarked in response to a report from June 2020. He further asserted, "As President, I will stand with the Venezuelan people and for democracy."
The reality, however, has unfolded quite differently. Despite Biden's promises, it was President Trump who took decisive action, ordering military strikes that resulted in the capture of Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, early Saturday morning. The couple now faces serious charges, including a narco-terrorism conspiracy.
In a bold move, President Trump shared a photo of a blindfolded Maduro aboard the USS Iwo Jima, along with a video showcasing the military operation. Addressing the press, President Trump declared that the United States will "run Venezuela" until a peaceful transfer of power is achieved, underscoring his commitment to restoring order and democracy in the region.
