Don't let the media get away with framing it the wrong way: Maduro was democratically elected. The same can't be said for Guaido.

Nothing to be disappointed by. Our having been bad does not make Maduro good.

Yes, but it does not give us the right to decide who is or isn't a part of their leadership. If we accept that the US can recognize whoever it wants, then anti-imperialistic causes go out the window.

I don’t necessarily disagree with that. But recognizing that someone was elected and inviting them to the White House is two different things. Trump would not be supporting Maduro out of a love of democracy.
