In his first TV appearance post-Maduro capture, President Trump delivered a no-nonsense vision for Venezuela on Fox News’ Hannity. Elections? Not yet. The priority is taming the crisis and reviving the oil industry that once fueled the nation’s wealth.
Maduro’s decade-plus grip devastated Venezuela, Trump charged. Prisons and psych wards were raided to export chaos to America—drugs, gangs, the works. ‘Democrats and Republicans alike wanted him gone, but no one had the guts,’ Trump said of the decision to act.
The raid was a masterstroke: Maduro nabbed from a militarized compound, zero U.S. fatalities. Trump spotlighted the injured pilots’ heroism and credited commanders for flawless execution. Drug flows by sea plummeted 97%, proving the op’s immediate impact.
Turning to oil, Trump announced U.S. oversight of reconstruction. ‘$4 billion under control already—big oil companies will rebuild it all,’ he boasted. This overhaul promises cheaper global energy. As dissidents walk free, Trump pledged long-term U.S. presence for stability.
‘Venezuela’s mess affects our borders,’ he warned. Rebuilding isn’t charity; it’s about preventing narcotics and illegals from reaching American soil. With oil fields humming again, prosperity—and fair elections—can follow.
