Democrats have found a dictator they want to defend – and it’s Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro. Just like their embrace of “Maryland Man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia – an illegal alien alleged to have ties to human trafficking, gang activity, and domestic abuse – the reflex is the same: oppose Trump at all costs. Even if that means being anti-American.

After President Donald Trump authorized a precision operation that captured Maduro alive and brought him to America to face trial — not a drone strike, not a smoking crater like with Obama’s “justice” – Democrats across X immediately declared it “war,” “kidnapping,” and apparently the end of civilization as we know it.

Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum condemned Trump’s operation – a curious response given that removing Venezuela from the cocaine-export business could easily create new opportunities closer to home.

One perfect post on X summed it up well saying: “We lost New York. Gained Venezuela.”

Democrats aren’t worried about America’s safety or drug problems. They’re worried Trump might succeed at something – and they hate that more than they hate actual dictators.
