Trump drops CONFESSION amid Venezuela invasion

Pay particular attention to the old clips of Rubio, Hegseth, and Kennedy prior to becoming Trump stooges.

This is truly pathetic to watch because they have known all along what an abysmal human being Trump is and yet have become the very sycophants they warned against.

Brian Tyler Cohen:

We have a pretty stunning confession from Donald Trump. But first, some background.

Yesterday, the New York Times published a pretty shocking piece of reporting that read, quote,
“Mr. Maduro in late December rejected an ultimatum from President Trump to leave office and go into gilded exile in Turkey.”

According to several Americans and Venezuelans involved in transition talks this week, he was back on stage brushing off the latest US escalation, a strike on a dock that the US said was used for drug trafficking by bouncing to an electronic beat on state television while his recorded voice repeated in English, “No crazy war.”

Mr. Maduro's regular public dancing and other displays of nonchalants in recent weeks helped persuade some on the Trump team that the Venezuelan president was mocking them and trying to call what he believed to be a bluff.

According to two people who spoke in the condition of anonymity, that Maduro's dancing, which Donald Trump felt was an instance of the Venezuelan dictator mocking him, was a justification, adequate justification to go ahead with the regime change incursion, which to be clear would be insane.

I'm sorry, but invading a foreign country because its leader mocked your dance moves like season 6 of Lost ridiculousness.

And even if it was the reason, it would be even more insane for Trump to actually acknowledge as much, which is why he said this today.

And uh you know, he's a violent guy. He gets up there and he tries to imitate my dance a little bit, but he's a violent guy.

He just admitted it in broad daylight.

The New York Times reports a bonker story that part of the justification to invade a sovereign country for their oil was that dear leader had his feelings hurt, and Trump goes on stage and essentially confesses to exactly that.

But hey, always important to remember America is not ready for an emotional woman as president.

In fact, Trump's fragile ego is so apparent that the Venezuelan opposition leader, Maria Corina Machado, knew that the only way to curry favor with him, even after he dismissed her by saying that she's not respected in her country, was to go on Fox News with Shan Hannity and offer up this pathetic display of cervility.

Fox News Clip:

Let me go back and and talk about it. You stayed in the country, but you were hiding within your country until you went to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

And I want you to tell us, you never went back at that point. Did you not go back because you feared for your life?

And tell us, I mean, it's not very usual that people will dedicate the Nobel Peace Prize to the leader of a different country and say publicly, he deserves this more than I do, but you did that.

Machado:

Let me be very clear. As soon as I learned that we had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, I dedicated to President Trump because I believed at that point that he deserved it.

And a lot of people, most people said it was impossible to achieve what he has just done on Saturday, January 3rd.

Uh so if I believed he deserved it on October, imagine now.

I think he has proven to the world what he means.

I mean January 3rd will go down in history as the day justice defeated a tyranny.

It's a milestone and it's not only huge for the Venezuelan people and our future. I think it's a huge step for humanity, for freedom and human dignity.

Host:

Did Did you at any point offer to give him the Nobel Peace Prize? Did that actually happen? I had read that somewhere. I wasn't sure if it was true.

Machado:

Well, it it hasn't happened yet, but I certainly would uh love to to be able to personally tell him that uh we believe the Venezuelan people because this is a prize of the Venezuelan people.

Certainly want to to give it to him and share it with him.

Uh what has what he has done as I said is historic. It's a huge step.

It’s now just a fact of life that in order to get what you want from the United States, you have to essentially petition the king.

You have to debase yourself, humiliate yourselves in hopes that maybe, just maybe, the megalomaniacal narcissist in charge feels adequately filated, and only then might you have the chance to get what you want.

And if you need an example of that, you don't have to look farther than Trump's own cabinet.

Here, for example, is Marco Rubio.

Marco Rubio (past clip):

You compare Donald Trump to a third world dictator yesterday in an interview with the New York Times. How so?

Well, I don't know about a dictator. I said a third world strongman.

Uh, you know, he he's running for president. So, no matter what, he won't be a dictator unless our republic completely crumbles, which I don't anticipate it will.

But yeah, here's what happens in many countries around the world.

You have a leader that emerges and basically says, “Forget, don't put your faith in yourselves. Don't put your faith in society. Put your faith in me.”

I'm a strong leader and I'm going to make things better by all by myself.

This is very typical. You see it in the third world. You see it a lot in Latin America for decades.

It's basically the argument he's making that he single-handedly is going to turn the country around.

We've never been that kind of country.

We have a president. The president is an American citizen who serves for a period of time constrained by the constitutions and the powers vested in that office.

The president works for the people, not the people for the president.

And if you listen to the way he describes himself and what he's going to do, he's going to single-handedly do this and do that without regard for whether it's legal or not.

Um, look, I I think people are going to have to make up their mind.

I can tell you this, no matter what happens in this election for years to come, there are many people on the right, in the media, and voters at large that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump.

Pete Hegseth:

Go ahead and kill the family. Go ahead and torture. Go ahead and go further than waterboarding.

What happens when people follow those orders or or don't follow them?

It's not clear that that Donald Trump will have their back.

Donald Trump is often times about Donald Trump.

And so you can't if you're not changing the law and you're just saying it, you create even more ambiguity.

Even if he had their back, we're already in trouble.

RFK Jr. (quoted):

“The way that you build a truly vicious nationalist movement is to wed a relatively small core of belligerent idiots to a much larger group of opportunists and spineless fellow travelers whose primary function is to turn a blind eye to things.

We may not have that many outrighties in America, but we have plenty of cowards and bootlickers.

And once those fleshy dominoes start tumbling into the Trump camp, the game is up.”

The reality is that our government is led by the exact type of people that these prior iterations of Rubio and Hegsth and RFK once condemned.

The same soulless, shameless bootlickers that they've turned into.

My god, how these guys would have mocked the dancing monkeys that they themselves have become.

And yet now all of these grown ass adults are out here kissing Trump's ass because his ego is as fragile as a Fabra egg.

And they're there to make sure that he feels adequately loved, adequately appreciated.

The whole thing is utterly pathetic.

But even more dangerous is the fact that because of a conflict that was incited because Trump felt mocked, he's now not even ruling out sending Americans into Venezuela to fight.

Trump (clip):

Does the US running the country mean that US troops will be on the ground? How will that work?

Well, you know, they always say boots on the ground.

Oh, so we're not afraid of boots on the ground if we have to have.

We had boots on the ground last night at a very high level.

Actually, we're not afraid of it. We We don't mind saying it, but we're going to make sure that that country is run properly.

We're not doing this in vain.

This is not This is a very dangerous attack.

This is an attack that could have gone very very badly.

Could have gone very badly.

We could have lost a lot of people last night.

We could have lost a lot of uh dignity.

We could have lost a lot of equipment.

The equipment is less important, but uh we could have lost a lot.

And we're going to make sure that this is proper.

We're there now. We're ready to go again if we have to.

In other words, Maduro mocked Trump's dancing.

So, not only did the US supplant the country's leader, but now American kids might have to go to war in South America to compensate for Trump's bruised ego.

This guy's feelings get hurt.

And so, now, God knows how many people have to die to make dear leader feel okay again.

This entire administration is a masterclass in small pathetic men debasing themselves on behalf of another small pathetic man.

And these guys have the audacity to call themselves alphas.

Perhaps if they were able to extricate themselves from deep within the bowels of Trump's colon, they might have a clearer perspective on just how utterly pathetic they all look.
