The Venezuela Raid Was A Win For America First Anti-Interventionism

In the wake of the Trump administration's successful operation in Venezuela over the weekend, we've heard the usual hypocritical objections from the left: that the action was "illegal" (it wasn't), that Trump is merely after Venezuela's oil (he isn't), that the arrest of Nicolas Maduro represents "Iraq 2.0" (it doesn't).

These objections are of course as disingenuous as they are inaccurate. And anyway, whatever military operation Trump might undertake against America's foes overseas will always be reflexively denounced by Democrats in the most hysterical terms — even when it's wildly successful, as this one was.
