This Is the Shady Truth About Trump’s Phony ‘Victory’: Guru

President Donald Trump’s oil deal with Venezuela is less of an agreement and more of a robbery, top foreign policy analyst David Rothkopf argues.

Appearing on The Daily Beast Podcast, the political expert explained that what the president called the “biggest oil deal in world history” is a prime example of the Trump administration’s “mafia government” abusing its power.

“It behaves much like the government does in the Kremlin, where it takes what it wants, it doesn’t care about the law, it breaks the laws, it enriches the people at the top, it doesn’t care about anybody else,” Rothkopf said. “You don’t agree with them at home? You don’t get support, we’ll try to prosecute you. Don’t agree with them overseas? We’ll invade you, we’ll attack you, we’ll cut your aid.”
