He can’t even run his casino except to bankruptcy.

An extract statement from CDC. This my last contribution to this subject. Rest you can do your own research. “This decline suggests more than 81 lives saved every day,” the CDC stated in a press release. On average, 220 US residents still died of overdose each day in 2024. But when the CDC announced the decline in May of 2025, the downward trend in overdose fatalities had already begun to reverse in seven states, according to the Guardian’s findings.

So you didn't read the link I provided containing the CDC's release that overdose deaths down by 27% from 2023. Shoulkd learn how to read before making any comment. Try it.

CDC report say otherwise. The sad part is that overdose deaths increase this year. Guess you already know why. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/us-overdose-deaths-fell-by-27-last-year-the-largest-one-year-decline-ever-recorded

The Maduro regime is still the government.Nothing has change except for the kipnapping of Maduro.

You reading from a Maga script. Programs like the overdoes prevention brought about reduction in overall overdose deaths. With these programs defunded due to Trump's reckless cuts to federal fundings so he can implement tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, might see a reversal of overdose deaths.

You are right that stopping the flow of drugs has no lasting impact. In fact I see that as an excuse for not doing enough internally to stop the demand. It is an abidication of duty by ths administration to address the drug problem in USA. Significant cuts to federal funds for addiction treatment, overdose prevention, research programs, dismantling agencies like de-staffing of the Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services and diverting resources by DOJ and FBI on drug related cases to work on the Epstein files. Trump is making excuse for his failing policies.

Remind me of the "mice tie bell on cat 'analogy. Who will invest billions in production when the world has a surplus in oil and the current price is not breaking even. The news of Maduro arrest only registered a less than 1% decrease in price. Not exactly a significant jump for joy for American taxpayers. So far major oil companies are muted on prospect of investing in Venezuela. Think you are overly optimistic this will turn up well.

I can see you are confused too as you have not given me an answer. Your gibberish something doesn’t provide any relief to my post. Maybe one last time I ask “ just what is Trump reason/s for attacking Venezuela. Do tell.

Strange dynamics in Trump’s head. He is after cocaine traffickers but pardon one convicted of cocaine trafficking and Fentanyl not cocaine is the primary and most lethal drug in US. He attacked Venezuela who is a small player in cocaine trafficking and then claim he is after regime change or was it oil. I am confused. Only the Maga folks will understand his illogical demented thinking.

US is not better off too. Cost US $2 - 3 trillion for the Irag War and another US $2-3 trillions for the Afghanistan War. That is what Republicans are good at. Tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, increase military spending and go to war and then hand the economic mess to the next Democratic government to clean up.

Capturing Maduro does not solve anything. The political vacuum will destabilised Venezuela. Maduro loyalists will not give up power easily. They are still the government and will hold power by force if necessary and will rig the next election. Is this another distraction from Trump’s domestic problems?

He does have concept of a plan 😄

It is a combination of dollar, oil and Isreal as correctly pointed out by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.). It’s certainty not about defending democracy and Iranian citizens. Another of his empty boast as his Maga base is not with his adventurism and not America first. He also need congressional approval to go to war with Iran and he wouldn’t get it. He is just blowing hot air and distraction from his failures as he consistently do

Means nothing because you subscribed to your cult leader disregard for law and order domestically and internationally. Fortunately your kind is in the minority domestically and internationally.

So many things wrong with your post. Tackling drug trafficking by deadly strikes has no justification in international law. Countering the the serious issue of illicit trafficking of drugs across international borders should be iagreed among States and governed by the careful limits on lethal force set out in international human rights law and only as a last resort against individuals who pose an imminent threat to life. UN Human Right condemned these extrajudiciary killings and urge US to use law enforcement methods like intercepting and detaining suspects. You don’t seem to be very convinced what Trump motives are but wilfully support his illegal acts

He said aspirin and his press secretary said its handshake and I said both are lying their axxxx off.

Safe from abusing their power? https://www.kptv.com/2025/12/29/detention-officer-admits-sexually-abusing-detainee-ice-facility/

More extra judiciary killings, potential war crimes or crimes against humanity in the high sea against alleged drug traffickers. Pete Hegseth will be the fall guy for Trump.

So much losing. Trump must be sick of losing.

Don’t think Trump ever talk about the dozens of times that Russia tried to assassinate Zelensky.

I was mocking the OP for his assertion that Trump is smart to avoid involvement with a security guarantee and Zelensky was an idiot to expect that this will happen. There was sarcasm is my post that Trump will honour any quarantee, pledges and promises. Trump is always at the edge of his pants and don't have the ability to collect his thoughts and most times reactionary to the occasion. So what he pledge to Zelensky is just a pique moment and could be rescind when Putin whisper to him. Russia invaded Ukraine and Putin is a war criminal and Trump is an obstacle to peace.

Well you asked and he has spoken. President Donald Trump said the US won’t recognize Somaliland as an independent state in an interview with the New York Post published Friday, after Benjamin Netanyahu said his government would recognize it. “No,” the president told the Post when asked about US recognition of Somaliland, adding: “Does anyone know what Somaliland is, really?”

The only card Putin hold is the Trump card. He is a Putin's tool. By the way according to DeepState report, Russia gained 0.96781 percent of the total area of Ukraine since 2022. Seem nothing much settled on the battlefield by Russia to remotely think will lead to any form of surrender. Further no tax $$ been skimmed as the billions are in the form of weaponry.

US-Ukraine security guarantees were 100 percent agreed by Trump in the 20 point peace deal. Do catch up.
