Those who frequent pubs on a Sunday morning are often more interesting than expected, if not always complex. I heard this fairly young guy questioning his buddy, rhetorically.
I wrote it down quickly:
“It must be extremely difficult to never have heard of Nicolás Maduro on Saturday morning, then be defending him on Sunday morning.
“It must be very conflicting to have blindly supported Barack Obama’s air campaigns in Libya, Syria, Iraq, Somalia, and Yemen, then Joe Biden’s air campaigns in some of the same places, but then stand opposed to what’s happening in Venezuela.
“It must be extremely difficult to be a ‘No Kings’ activist, yet then be in support of a narco-terrorist King.
“Unless of course they’re hypocrites. Or, that they really don’t know jack about any of these things.
“Could it be they’re not really against ‘Kings’ at all … they’re just opposed to one person they conveniently call a King, to match their lack of knowledge?”

So it’s OK to invade a country, abduct its leader and not get Congress approval?
@Ken Stone,
I rehashed as close as I could what the guy said. But what you’re asking is not even close to what he said. His point was about inconsistency in applying your beliefs to one president but not others.
