Imagine, you destroyed the GDP of your country by -75% in 8 years and seriously think that you are not done yet and are the solution.

Not done until it's 100% ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe if the US didn't put sanctions on them it wouldn't be that bad.

I always wonder, if socialism is so bad, then why does the US have to go all out on taking it down, instead of letting it fall on its own?

New elections until Maduro likes the result?

Imagine to be that unpopular that you even can't win a rigged election.
