OOPS! New Poll of Venezuela's Neighbors Shows a SLIGHTLY Different Reaction to Maduro's Arrest

Nicolas Maduro had barely been put into handcuffs a few days ago before leftists in America began protesting and demanding his release. We needn't tell anyone that most of those paid protesters shared a certain ... ahem ... paleness to their hue.

Capitol Hill wasn't much better, with John Fetterman being just about the only Democrat who could see the water's edge and applaud the US military for the amazing operation they had pulled off.

Naturally, the opinions of Venezuelans about the removal of a dictator who had destroyed their country were just a tad different from the woke AWFLs in Manhattan sipping their Starbucks as they screeched 'Stop the bombing!' (The 'bombing,' of course, had already stopped while they were still sleeping off their Franzia hangover.)

But a new poll, taken in the immediate aftermath of the raid, shows that it's not only Venezuelans who are dancing in the streets about Maduro facing trial for his crimes, but nearly ALL Latin American countries are joining in the celebration.

Check out these overwhelming numbers (with one notable exception):

Net approval on the detention of Nicolas Maduro by the U.S. in Latin America

🇨🇷 Costa Rica: (+80)
🇨🇴 Colombia (+67)
🇵🇪 Peru (+63)
🇨🇱 Chile (+62)
🇵🇦 Panama (+59)
🇦🇷 Argentina (+30)
🇪🇨 Ecuador (+24)
🇺🇾 Uruguay (+19)
🇲🇽 Mexico (+1)

Wow. If any American politician had poll numbers as positive as that, he or she would win an election in more of a landslide than Trump did.

President Trump’s actions are very popular among Hispanics in the US and in Latin America. Not as popular in white, wealthy, liberal parts of America that view us Latinos as their primary source of cheap labor & Latin American countries as their source of cheap, abundant cocaine. https://t.co/sl69k1VMlR

It's hilarious to watch the TDS left in America and Western Europe use astroturfed protests in places like New York, London, and Paris to claim that 'the world hates America and Donald Trump.'

Funny how the reaction in Caracas, Quito, San José, and Lima is the polar opposite.

What if I told you that Venezuela’s regional ambitions were far more toxic in Latin America than the left would have you believe? https://t.co/rfkEix3FfK

The people who lived under the threat of those ambitions know.

They know far better than Karen in Brooklyn Heights.

Europe can hate us all they like. Nabbing Maduro earned massive good will from all of our hemispheric neighbors in Latin America. https://t.co/YCBHoHQHAR

From a purely political standpoint, this poll bodes very badly for Democrats in America in upcoming elections.

Democrats are working overtime to never win Hispanic-Americans again. https://t.co/YNQbZHfqmT

Jill Biden saying 'See Say Pwadway,' and calling Latinos 'breakfast burritos' isn't going to win back the Hispanic vote in the United States.

Accordingly, leftists immediately tried to discredit the poll.

Is this a real pollster? If so, is this a real poll? People can post anything now and say it's a poll result.

LOL.

Nice try, Dick.

Except Altica IS a real polling organization and they published the results.

So basically the entire world except for white Liberals? 💀

We don't know about the entire world, but certainly the entire Western Hemisphere. Or, as Marco Rubio would call it, 'OUR hemisphere.'

(We don't count Canada, because no one should ever count Canada in anything.)

Quite literally everyone in the region loves what Trump did.

And it appears the closer you get to Venezuela, the more intense the support becomes https://t.co/kfCWNqJ81I

Not a coincidence.

But, more importantly, they are big mad about it in Seattle! https://t.co/lAvQfbaJtz

HAHAHAHAHA.

Leftist racism about to hit record levels https://t.co/R1ZDyJbrA6 pic.twitter.com/qIdabGA3Nv

You can count on that like you can count on the sun rising in the East every morning. It's going to get ugly.

This poll shatters the leftist myth that Latin Americans crave socialist "liberation" — while white guilt-driven elites in the West wring their hands over "imperialism." https://t.co/CBl6PbDXF8

Looks like they are happy to cast off the embrace of 'warm collectivism.'

Maduro turns out to be shockingly unpopular with his neighbors and surrounding countries https://t.co/v9myNaOtQs

It truly is.

As it is every time that actual facts and results demolish BS leftist narratives.

And Javier Milei would (and did) say, 'Viva la libertad, carajo!'
