True. But Pompeo is also a meathead, let's not forget. His claim that Maduro was ready to flee Venezuela, and that he only stayed because Putin told him to, suggests he was tripping. Flee from what? Meanwhile Trump reported that Russia wasn't seeking to get involved in Venezuela. In this case, Trump is correct. What does Russia want there (except a bit of a bargainung chip I suppose).
