Trump Told Maduro to Leave: Save Yourself, Your Family
President Donald Trump confirmed his call with Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro on Sunday night, but declined to provide details amid a report that he warned the dictator to leave to protect himself and his family.The report comes from sources who told The Miami Herald that Trump warned: You can save yourself and those closest to you, but you must leave the country now.
"I don't want to comment on it. The answer is yes," Trump told reporters Sunday aboard Air Force One when asked whether he had spoken with Maduro.
Trump reportedly delivered a stark message to Maduro during the high-stakes phone call last week: He, his wife Cilia Flores, and his son would be granted safe passage out of Venezuela — but only if they left immediately, the Herald reported.
The call, brokered by Brazil, Qatar, and Turkey, was intended as a last-ditch diplomatic effort as Washington prepares to expand its military campaign against Venezuela's ruling cartel, but it quickly collapsed over irreconcilable demands.

Pardoning narcotraffickers while saying he's waging a war on drug traffickers is a strange strategy.
As we don't know the strategy, let it play out. Give the Commander in Chief the benefit of your liberal doubts.
Says the woman who doubted, criticized and mocked the commander-in-chief for 4 years.
Again, I gotta ask...do you have any earthly idea at all how hypocritical you are?
He should go after China for the fentanyl but he won’t this isn’t about drugs is it?
The idea is to WIN the war. Ideally very fast, and with the least number of American casualties. Getting Maduro out...is like wiping out the king in a game of chess....Only better :-)
@8:37...what IS it about if not drugs?
@8:18...comparing a demented president to Trump is laughable. Four years of Biden and 8 years of Obama nearly brought our country to its knees. It's taking longer than we wanted to turn it around but it will take many months, but Trump will get there. With lunatics cheering against him, and standing in his way at every turn, with crazy protests, flying Palestine flags, etc., pehaps it will take longer than we know.
