Setting this precedence up is troubling.
A to fer...
This was also made illegal by the Venezuelan legislature. So, why should we care?
The word is “precedent”.

It is a power the President has always had.
Please explain all of this to me. Thanks.
That’s unprecedented..............
Two words:
Screw Venezuela.....................
And of course anything worse happening to Venezuela is Trump’s fault. But then, how much worse can it get? It’s almost like that Weimar Republic of post WW1 Germany.
You’re the first person in this thread to use the word “to,” “two” or “too” correctly.
I’m the second.
How unlike me!
I like the sound of that!
Correction. Red Badger is second.

They have their own cryptocurrency? Commiecoin?
The only cryptocurrency that deflates to 100 billionth of its original value each month! Get in on the ground floor today!
Don’t set a bad president, let the argument take precedents.

I know some Venezuelans. These guys I just love. They were not the very poor in their country though. They are living as citizens now in the US.

Still Trump’s fault.
Bkmrk.
