Trump says US will run Venezuela with a group, doesn't fear putting US troops on ground
US President Donald Trump said on Saturday the United States would run Venezuela “with a group,” adding that Secretary of State Marco Rubio would be working on the details. Speaking at a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, Trump said the United States was not afraid to put troops on the ground in Venezuela following the arrest of President Nicolas Maduro. “We’re not afraid of boots on the ground,” he said. Rubio told reporters the Trump administration notified members of Congress about the military operation in Venezuela immediately after it was carried out, saying it was “not the kind of mission that you can do congressional notification on” because it was trigger-based and depended on conditions being met. “Congress has a tendency to leak,” Trump added.
