Abusing an Entire Nation is Acceptable

Maduro announced plans to run for reelection in the broken husk of Venezuela that socialist policies have destroyed:

Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro will seek another term in elections next year, Vice President Tareck El Aissami said Wednesday.

It takes time to totally destroy a country. One more term should do it.

Sadly, American leftists will turn on Venezuela's socialist rulers only if Maduro is accused of ejaculating on a house plant.

UPDATE: And the abuse isn't just the poverty created by corrupt and inept socialism (at least the Swedes could keep it running longer by using other people's money more wisely while the money lasted). It is actual abuse of actual "resistance":

Venezuelan state security forces systematically abused opposition protesters detained during months of deadly political unrest earlier this year, Human Rights Watch charged Wednesday.

Some of the more than 5,000 people detained were beaten, sexually assaulted or given electrical shocks in what the New York-based rights group describes in a report as a level of repression "unseen in Venezuela in recent memory."

The corrupt inept socialist rulers can't even make the trains run on time.
