Donald Trump’s approval rating is 43%. Barack Obama’s approval rating at the same point of his presidency (31 January 2011) was 50%.

Here is Kurt Schlichter's latest column.

Shame on the Globe for endorsing President Trump’s blatant and aggressive policy of regime change in Venezuela (“Hope for Venezuela,” Editorial, Jan. 26). Despite his many failings, Nicolás Maduro was elected president by Venezuelan citizens in a contest that most of the political opposition chose to boycott—and that many believe they could have won. As has been widely reported, the advance promise from the United States of support to hard-liner Juan Guaidó was the crucial factor leading to his provocative self-declaration as president, creating a political crisis that has greatly increased the risk of violent conflict through a military coup or civil war.

Is it really acceptable to allow US Latin America policy to be dictated by Marco Rubio and Florida politics, or by our president’s desperate efforts to distract from his domestic woes?

Instead, we should be following Mexico’s lead by supporting a negotiated political settlement in Venezuela that will end further economic hardship and bloodshed.

Come summer, I want to see a tweet just like this that says “Summer heat doesn’t prove that global warming is happening.”
