Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania spoke out about the U.S. success in capturing Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro and the negative reactions of political leaders of his party. He commended the U.S. military operation as “appropriate and surgical,” with Maduro taken into custody to stand trial.
“I don’t know why we can’t just acknowledge that it’s been a good thing, what’s happened,” Senator Fetterman said. “I mean, I mean, I’ve seen the speeches… we all wanted this man gone and now he is gone.”
“I think we should really appreciate exactly what happened here,” the senator continued. “Now, remember, we all… years ago, wanted to eliminate [Maduro], and why have a bounty of $25 million if we didn’t want him gone? Why would you do these things if you weren’t willing to actually do something other than harsh language?”
“Let’s remember, eight million Venezuelans were displaced and mass chaos, and now they were shipping drugs to our nation as well, too,” Senator Fetterman added. “So, for me, it’s like, why… we can’t just acknowledge that it was successful?”
