On May 1, according to the Guardian, “Nicolas Maduro claimed his troops have thwarted a botched attempt to topple him masterminded by Venezuela’s “coup-mongering far right” and Donald Trump’s deranged imperialist “gang.” “

Donald Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize has slipped from his grasp… again. Mad Magazine’s series Spy versus Spy has been matched.   We have Real Life’s Incompetent versus Incompetent.

The North American Incompetent lost. His man, John Bolton, announced that the Venezuelan defense minister, the head of the supreme court, and the commander of the Presidential Guard had committed to defect. He called on them to do just that. From Washington.

The Guardian quoted the Venezuelan foreign minister “Dream on [John Bolton] ….Not today.”

Donald Trump embarrasses himself and his country. Facing the realities of other countries, other country’s leaders standing for their own interests, Donald Trump’s plans crumble.

The Art of the Deal? No Deal. No Deal Trump.   Sad.
