    Yeah, Trump has major backing with the Secretary General of the States Almagro. Colombia and Brazil.


    Secretary General of the Organization of American States Almagro. The Secretary General may bring to the attention of the General Assembly or the Permanent Council any matter which in his opinion might threaten the peace and security of the Hemisphere or the development of the Member States.....snip~


    He was Elected by 33 out of the 34 States.
    Which Ron Paul would have to read and study to figure out what that group is about. Maybe one day 33 out 34 States would think Ron Paul was worth listening to.


    Looks like its time Ron Paul went back to doing commercials about his Theory Conspiracy and how the World is going to come to an end. Let the Big Boys handle things.
    History does not long Entrust the care of Freedom, to the Weak or Timid!!!!! Dwight D. Eisenhower ~

    You always agree with anyone who criticizes the US.

    I'm surprised Trump allowed sanctions to got through, considering one of the affected company's donated $500k to his inauguration.

    Then again, once a scam artist, always a scam artist.
    Most of Ron paul's ideas are supported by the Constitution.

    I’ve been pleasantly surprised with how Trump has handled the Venezuelan crisis thus far. I think it’s a good way to handle foreign intervention and I hope this approach is taken more in the future.

    I am somewhat concerned, however, in their readiness to put military options on the table. Under no circumstances should the US military be used to force or aid in regime change in Venezuela.

    Aaron Sorkin told you so, or is there a specific high point of lunacy you’re thinking of?

    I stopped paying much attention to the old loon when he came out for the gold standard.

    You're free to continue worshiping him.
