According to the US Peace Council the US sanctions and other hostilities are to blame for the problems in Venezuela, not Maduro:

When I was watching the press conference this morning it seemed we will do more than we are now. Not sure what, or if it's really possible. Thought someone might have an idea or some input.

Rebeldor, in referring to "us" I was referring to America.

“We are with Venezuela,” the president said at the start of a meeting with Rosales and other opposition figures. “What’s happening there should not be happening.”

The United States was the first nation to recognize Guaido as interim president, asserting that Maduro’s re-election last year was illegitimate, and has stepped up sanctions and other diplomatic measures in hopes of forcing him to give up power.

President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence lavished praise on Fabiana Rosales, the wife of opposition leader Juan Guaido.Venezuelan Opposition Leader's Wife Visits The White House | Time

I'm actually glad we are finally trying to deal with some South American issues instead of just sitting here complaining about refugees from these countries. I think we should be part of the solution since we have some of the problem coming over our borders.

Looks like Russia has landed troops in Venezuela. So, wonder if we might do the same?

Maybe we'll get that American/Russian war the left has been drooling over after all.

That's nonsense. The refugees usually come from countries where the US has caused the problem in the first place. Like Honduras currently where the US-backed coup has lead to the dramatic deterioration of the situation in the first place. And why the coup? Because it was a leftist government that was more or less successful.

Not to mention Mexicans fleeing from the crime US drug addicts are causing in Mexico and Latin America.

Nothing. It's not our business to intervene. We got problems here.

To hell with them! I'm so tired of the whole world blaming the U.S for their problems. Whatever's going on, let them work it out. It's not our business or responsibility.

No! Let them do whatever they want to do in Venezuela. We don't need to be bothered.
