16. The top end of our military

that he has taken out, would have opposed his military escapades, line the one on the horizon which is going to go after Venezuela.....

It is not, as he claims, the drug cartels he going after, it is the fact that he and Putin have their eyes on taking control of the world's largest oil reserves, even greater than second place Saudi Arabia........

He is amassing a humongous strike force of several carrier groups and their accompanying destroyers off the coast of Venezuela..................... ...........Un-fathomable......I can only guess he is out to obliterate any resistance using pure airpower, not troops on the ground......
