Carlos Vecchio Talks Maduro, Juan Guaidó, and Venezuela - The Atlantic

And they’re betting on the Trump administration to help bring Nicolás Maduro’s reign to an end.

Of course, Venezuela’s military leaders have so far stuck with Maduro through months of U.S. military threats. And with the exception of über-hawks like Lindsey Graham, there seems to be nearly no appetite in Washington to actually use military force. If a “military option” is indeed “on the table,” as Trump-administration officials like to say, it’s wedged in a corner and unlikely to shake loose absent some seismic development.
