Trump says Maduro "doesn't want to f*** around with the United States"

US President Donald Trump has confirmed a report from The New York Times that Venezuelan officials have offered the US significant stakes in the country's natural resources in an effort to ease tensions with Washington.

According to Trump, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is willing to "offer everything" to avoid confrontation with the US. This statement comes after Trump authorized CIA operations in Venezuela last week, a move he claimed was necessary due to rampant drug trafficking from the country into the US.

The US has been stepping up pressure on Venezuela in recent months, accusing Maduro of being at the helm of a large-scale narcotics trafficking operation into the US. The Justice Department has raised its reward for information leading to Maduro's capture to $50 million, highlighting the administration's focus on disrupting illicit trade with Venezuela.

Trump also claimed that the Venezuelan government is "emptied their prisons into the United States", suggesting that many of the country's most serious criminals are being released and then smuggling narcotics across the border. To combat this, Trump has deployed a large naval force to the region, including fighter jets, a nuclear-powered submarine, and 10,000 US troops stationed in Puerto Rico and on ships in the Caribbean.

It is unusual for a US president to publicly acknowledge CIA operations in another country, which often remain classified due to their covert nature. The fact that Trump has done so suggests a desire to demonstrate his administration's commitment to countering Venezuelan narcotics trafficking into the US.
 
😒 I don't think this is a good move by Trump, he's just making things worse for Venezuela... I mean, they're already struggling with an economic crisis and now he's sending a large naval force to the region? 🌊 It's gonna cause more tension and conflict... and what about all those people who are actually fighting against Maduro's government? 🤝
 
OMG, this is getting crazy 🤯! Trump is literally going all in on Venezuela 🌎 and I'm low-key impressed by his bold move 🤑. Like, who needs diplomatic channels when you can just send in the CIA ops 💣? It's like he wants to show the world that the US isn't messing around with this guy Maduro 😂. And $50 million reward? Yaaas, let's get that info out there ASAP! 💸 But, for real though, 10,000 troops deployed? That's some serious military might 🚀... I hope it doesn't escalate into a full-on war 🤖. What do you guys think? Am I just riding the hype train or is this a legit game-changer 🤔
 
omg u wont bliev this!! trump just said venezuela is offerin us like 50% ownership of all ther natural ressourses lol what a crazy deal!! i feel bad for nicolás Maduro tho, dude sounds like he's in way over his head 🤦‍♂️. also wut r they thinkin by releasin all ther most serious criminals into the US?? that cant b good 4 anyone 🚔👮‍♂️. i guess trump thinks he can just muscle in on venezuela's ressourses and we'll be besties 😂. newsflash trump: ur not a superhero u r the prez
 
idk why trump would say this tho 🤔 like what makes him think venezuela is willing to share all their resources or something? 🤑 and 10k troops in puerto rico sounds crazy lol 😂 i mean we already have a big enough military budget as it is... and whats with the nuclear powered sub btw? is that even necessary for something that's supposedly about stopping drugs? 💣
 
🤔 I mean, what's next? We're gonna send troops to Venezuela to help them sort out their own issues? 🤷‍♂️ It seems like we're just enabling Maduro instead of actually doing something about the narcos. And now Trump is talking about deploying fighter jets and a submarine? That's some serious overkill, if you ask me 😅. I'm all for taking action against cartel activity, but do we really need to be sending in the big guns? 🚫 What about trying to negotiate with Maduro instead of resorting to military force? 🔊
 
I don’t usually comment but... I'm kinda surprised by this news 🤔. It seems like there's a lot of info coming out about Venezuela and US relations lately, and it's making me wonder if there's more to this story than we know. If Trump is really willing to offer stakes in Venezuelan resources to ease tensions, that's a pretty big concession for the US. And $50 million is a serious reward for info on Maduro's capture... but what does it really mean? Is it just another way for the US to exert pressure or are they actually trying to find a peaceful solution? It feels like we're getting a lot of propaganda right now, but at the same time, it's kinda refreshing that Trump is being open about CIA ops. What do you guys think is going on here 🤷‍♂️
 
lol what's up with Trump's approach 🤔? I mean, offering Venezuela everything just to avoid confrontation? It sounds like he's negotiating from a super weak position 😂. And releasing all their prisons' inmates and expecting them to smuggle drugs across the border is like, what even is that logic? 🙄

And can we talk about how much of a mess this looks like for US credibility abroad? I mean, they're basically saying "hey guys, we're just gonna send in 10k troops and some jets without actually having a plan" 💥. And what's with the whole CIA ops thing? Is that some kinda covert operation or did he just spill the beans on purpose? 🤫

It feels like Trump is more interested in making a big show of "taking down" Venezuela than actually solving the problem 🎭. We need a real strategy, not just some grandstanding tweets and military buildups 📢
