I’ll preface this by saying I’m an American who hates Trump, his regime, and everything they stand for.

Every president has done some version of Venezuela and they always justify it with some Bs so I got to thinking what would I do in a situation where I was president and my intelligence community showed me proof that some dictator in a country that doesn’t really like us was creating nukes. Assuming you have all the correct information and it’s 100% true of course.

You can go around and around saying you need more info and all that. Let’s just assume they are building nukes and you know they will use it as leverage to harm your people economically or militarily

        Did they maybe have a point with that one?

        …letting war criminals fly unimpeded through their air space.

        I mean, the heads of state of the three most powerful nations in the world (plus various others) arguably hold that status, and collectively they must have flown over dozens of different nations. France may not exactly be heroic in that regard, but it’s a crowded field, far as I can tell.
