Trump: The People of Venezuela Stand at the Threshold of History Ready to Reclaim Their Country

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “As we meet today, the people of Venezuela stand at the threshold of history, ready to reclaim their country and to reclaim their future. Not long ago, Venezuela was the wealthiest nation by far in South America. But years of socialist rule have brought this once-thriving nation to the brink of ruin. That’s where it is today. Their tyrannical socialist government nationalized private industries, and took over private businesses. They engaged in massive wealth confiscation, shut down free markets, suppressed free speech, and set up a relentless propaganda machine, rigged elections, used the government to persecute their political opponents, and destroyed the impartial rule of law.”
