This is a redline moment. For nearly 2 centuries the US has prevented overseas powers from intervening in the Americas. This has ensured US security on this side of the seas. The Soviets sought to compromise it during the cold war, but ultimately failed. Regardless of who holds the presidency, this is a key US security issue. How will Trump respond?

I don't pretend to have a handle on this, but I think it's going to be a really big deal for Trump for all kinds of reasons.

If nothing else, it gives him a way to pivot away from the wall and gives him a better external enemy to focus on.

Well, quite frankly, I don’t give a crap about Venezuela; so let Russia and China feel they got their way.
