I love looking at this and wondering what I've learned on this day that ends with the sunset.
I'm in a period of total learning!
Let's get down to brass tacks.
The current US president isn't a career politician; he's a businessman. That means zero diplomatic rhetoric, zero protocol, and zero interest in looking good in the UN photo album. He doesn't sell abstract values; he sells results. Like it or not.
In Threads, he announced that Venezuela will deliver between 30 and 50 million barrels of oil (a pittance only for someone who has never produced anything). Sanctioned oil, yes, but sold at the real market price, not at the price of "creative socialism." The money, he says, will be managed and will benefit both peoples. Pure and simple business. No fairy tales, no anthems.
And of course, all hell broke loose: accusations of hypocrisy, claims that he never cared about the freedom of the Venezuelan people. Ladies and gentlemen, Trump isn't playing at being a liberator; he's playing at being an accountant. While others hold summits, pose for photos, and give speeches with grand pronouncements, he pulls out his calculator. Where the politician sees microphones, the businessman sees numbers. And the numbers, however painful, are not partisan.
Now, let's review this selective memory: Chávez expropriated Chevron, Exxon, and half the oil-producing world. He stole the business, believing that oil can be managed with slogans. The result: Venezuela ended up begging, sitting on a pool of crude oil. A golden cup, yes, but empty… like the shelves.
What's truly curious (almost worthy of clinical study) is seeing so many indignant Cubans accusing Trump of manipulation, saying that they're all matches from the same box. A grave error.
This match burns out in four years. The other one (yours) has been burning for 67 years, it doesn't light up, it smokes, it burns your fingers, it's headless… and yet you still keep it as a national relic.
Sarcasm aside, the difference is simple:
one does business and leaves,
the other ruins countries… and stays.
Wow, the picture of the man with the white beard is great!!
It was my favorite of all.
Thanks for sharing ⚡
That's a good answer... and I also think that most of those dictators who boast of being invincible are very, very cowardly!
I definitely want to highlight the Chuao estate, where they produce the best cacao in my native Venezuela. Being able to continue operating today in a country mired in dictatorship and corruption is undoubtedly a huge challenge!
I liked this phrase.
"Stay away from guards."
I always read these posts because they help me understand situations I want to avoid.
And the best way I know how to do that is by learning about security every day.
Thanks for sharing.
They don't even believe that "Save the children" nonsense!
All politicians are garbage!
And I want to say that it's our responsibility to teach our children to understand the truth and not live asleep, believing whatever they hear on their phones!
What they've done is exceptional. I like these kinds of videos because they highlight the effort and work of many people.
She's a figure placed there by the dictatorship!
