The politics of removing Nicolas Maduro

The full implications of President Trump's decision to arrest Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro will likely take months or years to play out. But we do know the public is deeply divided over the mission and concerned for what the endgame is for Venezuela.

Indeed, polling conducted after the news broke underscores these divisions and exposes these concerns. Overall, Americans are virtually split, with 48 percent approving of the U.S. military removing Maduro and 52 percent disapproving, per CBS News polling.
