Happy New Year! Dang! We're three days in, and that magnificent bastard has managed to do more of what I voted for, and...wow!
And it's not just Venezuela this is going to end up hitting: there's also Russia (translated tweet follows).
"This is not f***ing funny, you underdeveloped idiots. Soon it won’t even be profitable for us to extract oil. In a couple of months we’ll starve to death. This is checkmate for the entire economy of the underdeveloped traitor Putin. May he die, a real bastard. A talentless, stinking piece of f***ot trash. This is a nightmare for us. They will drop the price of oil below the floor and take over the entire market. Now, on top of everything else, they’ll also have oil. This is a total f***ing disaster. And we’ll be left without internet, drowning in taxes, hugging our f***ing oil. The political leadership of our country needs to be killed. They are inherently insane. And they are traitors. They should be hanged. The Americans have just extended their existence for several more centuries, while ours will end in a month."
I'd say I was sorry for the common people in Russia, but I'm not. They've permitted the bastards running their nation into the ground to run their nation into the ground. I'm glad this is going to hurt that country as a whole--maybe they'll fucking learn something this time about civilized behavior.
(note, I'm not holding my breath)
Iranian Mullahs have just lost a bunch of their weapons development and their escape plans. My shadenboner may have reached low earth orbit by this point--which should be impressive, considering I lack the parts.
Not sure yet how this is going to affect China, but they had diplomats there in talks with Maduro the day before we snagged him out of his bunker before he could close and bolt the door.
Of course, there are the usual depressives, Marxists, and anti-American psy-ops wailing and bemoaning unconstitutional acts, but I don't recall hearing anything about any of the unconstitutional foreign bombings, drone attacks, and extra-judicial assassinations pulled off by Clinton or Obama. They can sit down and STFU.
Overall, this is exactly what I voted for, and I'm enjoying every second.
