He's planning an invasion of Venezuela. There are warships and 4500 troops off their coast. They hit a small fishing boat and there's been no evidence shown that it was smuggling drugs. IMO, he's hoping for some sort of reprisal that will give him an excuse to invade. He wants their oil.

Some were, no doubt, but one of the things that ended that war was public disgust at seeing the blood and gore nightly on TV. Also remember that they reported on the war crimes of Lt. Calley. After Vietnam, reporters had to be embedded with the military to prevent that happening again.

Even after Bush, Clinton kept the same policies and cut social programs even more than the GOP did. Young folks don't realize how much better off people were before neoliberal economics started being considered gospel. It all goes back to Milton Friedman and the Chicago school of economics.

I'm was born in 57. Everything went downhill pretty fast under Reagan. Trickle down economics and huge tax cuts for the rich. Homelessness wasn't even a thing in the 70s, that started under Reagan, Thatcher and in Canada Mulroney. Nothing was ever the same. Wages dropped, good jobs were outsourced.
