A lot of people in your country think things will be better under Trump. They're in for a rude awakening when they start shooting people opposed in the streets because they simply do not care about you as a people.
I disagree.
A lot of people do not care about Trump, mostly due to ignorance. But most reject it upfront.
Those people you talk about, although they exist, are a insignificant minority. Weirdos who's ideas, more often than not, are influenced by their infatuation with the US.
Only the mad ones are eager for bloodshed.
(And I really hope you're not using the Venezuelan abroad to judge how we are here in our mainland).
I had a perception bias, thank you for clearing it up. It's just that our media likes to show those people mostly. I know abroad don't represent those in the mainland, but man they are noisy like MAGA is.
its the "maduro bad" angle, from right wingers. no shit hes bad, but trump just made things worst by destabilizing a country.
the ones that are expats of venzeuala are celebrating, as if trump is better lol. they traded an authoritarian for another one, that brainwashed them with propaganda. why do you think all the s americans migrating here are only in florida and texas.
When did Venezuelan immigrants become expats?
