(CNN) - President Donald Trump last August asked several top foreign policy advisers about the possibility of invading Venezuela during a meeting about diplomatic sanctions the US was enacting on the autocratic government, a senior administration official familiar with the comments said.

Trump's aides, including then-national security adviser HR McMaster, vigorously urged him against the notion of a military invasion of Venezuela, warning him it could backfire and explaining that US allies in the region were firmly opposed to such drastic action. Taking military action against Venezuela would be a dramatic escalation of the US's so-far solely diplomatic and sanctions-focused response to the political and economic crisis roiling the South American country.

Still, the official with knowledge of Trump's private comments noted there was "no imminent plan for a military strike" and chalked the comments up to Trump thinking "out loud."

Of course he did and would

 

I'm sure it's also crossed his mind to anex Canada. I meanwhy not we probably more natural resources in total than anyone other Country on Earth and the US plus its Alaska portion is already attachedto us and America clearly has the fire power

 

I'm sure there's a lot of things he thinks that he knows even the rest of his wack administration wouldn't support so he doesn't say it :neyde:

It sounds bad, but at this point it's what's needed. The situation in Venezuela is getting worse with the time, and an intervention seems like the only solution.

If he does that, at least we get closer to a Fallout universe! Bring on the super mutants.
