Trump declines call from Venezuela's socialist president "until democracy is restored to that country"

Yesterday--Friday, August 11th--the government of Venezuela called the White House, asking if president Trump would take a call from Venezuelan president/dictator Maduro.

President Trump declined, saying he wouldn't speak with the socialist leader "until democracy is restored in that country.”

The White House then released this statement:

Since the start of this Administration, President Trump has asked that Maduro respect Venezuela’s constitution, hold free and fair elections, release political prisoners, cease all human rights violations, and stop oppressing Venezuela’s great people.

The Maduro regime has refused to heed this call, which has been echoed around the region and the world. Instead Maduro has chosen the path of dictatorship.

The United States stands with the people of Venezuela in the face of their continued oppression by the Maduro regime.  “President Trump will gladly speak with the leader of Venezuela as soon as democracy is restored in that country.

Fabulous response.  The emperor Obama would have congratulated his socialist comrade on his firm governing style, and dispatched a plane loaded with a billion dollars of freshly-printed bills--much as Billy Clinton kissed North Korea's ass, sending them millions of dollars of food and heating oil during his ghastly administration.

This is why so many Americans like Trump:  He doesn't grovel before dictators or support their corrupt regimes.

Finally, do a search for "Trump declines to take Maduro call" and see how often this appeared in the Lying Mainstream Media--in a positive story.
