| The same principles apply around the world. The U.S. recently invaded a sovereign nation and abducted its democratically elected leader because that leader was ostensibly involved in shipping cocaine to the U.S. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_United_States_interventio... |

| Saying Maduro was democratically elected was too rich. |

| So what? The only reason the U.S. did this is because it can. What will the UK do when 4chan tells its online regulator to go suck a d***, send in James Bond? |

| Maduro was not legitimately and democratically elected. |

| ▲ | ImJamal 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Trump was validly elected. He won the required number of electors in the electoral college in the 2016 and 2024 elections. Maduro on the other hand... | | |

| ▲ | rootusrootus an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | The only election for the president that matters is the electoral college. What the citizens are voting on is a referendum to choose the electors (and in some states it is not binding). You might try to argue that the referendum was rigged somehow, but rigging the electoral college voting is even less plausible. | |
| ▲ | ImJamal an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | Trump was talking about how Elon campaigned for him for a month in Pennsylvania and said he knows all about the voting counting machines in Pennsylvania. Even if Musk did something in Pennsylvania, Trump still would have won the electoral college vote. I think the good faith argument is that Musk confirmed they were secure so that the election wasn't stolen from Trump. But frankly Musk is too much of an idiot to steal an election or make sure it is secure so I don't know how to take it... |

| This argument is tiresome. You can be against freespeech restrictions in Britain and the 2024 Trump Administrations braindead military and foreign policy. If I attack either, I am not taking the people in the countries whose politicians make the decisions. |
