    Michael Tracey Retweeted Chris Murphy

    Laudable (if imperfect) attempt from Murphy here to challenge the logic of the regime change crowd, rather than lapsing into the typical rote talking points. Maybe he should give Bernie a briefinghttps://twitter.com/chrismurphyct/status/1099477470691184641 …

    1/ Democrats need to be careful about a potential trap being set by Trump et al in Venezuela. Cheering humanitarian convoys sounds like the right thing to do, but what if it's not about the aid? What if the real agenda is laying a pretext for war? Follow my logic for a second.

        5/ Maduro is evil, and the U.S. should pursue a strategy to undermine him and prompt new elections. No one can defend what he has done to Venezuela. But it's quite a different thing for the U.S. to incite a civil war with no real plan for how it ends (sound familiar?).

        "5/ Maduro is evil, and the U.S. should pursue a strategy to undermine him and prompt new elections." Chris Murphy does not respect the sovereignty of the Venezuelan people. Does he believe Russia meddled in our elections? I don't but I bet Chris Murphy does. OK for US not others

        It's amazing that Bernie got outdone by Chris Murphy. Grow a pair @SenSanders and stand up to the Military Industrial Complex - I mean doing that is kind of in your platform. So do it.

        He's stood up for the MIC repeatedly, for his entire congressional career. Both in foreign adventurism and cronyism here at home.

        Thanks for taking that up! (I know I was kind of :/ about you saying he’s pro ‘regime change’ in the sense of a military coup. I think he’s more dimensional than people want to admit. His quarterly surveys had foreign policy / war as one of the choices for top priority lol.

        I mean Chris’s office was in the area where he reps people like my dad. Sure some aerospace workers, but underestimated .. I said this “‘no more stupid wars’.. and what are we doing in VZ?” and my dad said “we’re going to send Ollie North in.”

        I mean the part where he calls Maduro "evil" and says the US should work to "undermine" him kind of takes the air out of it. He's basically saying yes to regime change but no to direct military intervention

        For what constituency? one that just elected Ned Lamont? Chris went into natl politics in context of Lieberman retiring & a state really fed up w/ his role in Iraq. He spent 7yrs representing a district where my city is most populous.
