Let's see how Cadet Bone Spur and Putin ass kisser huffs and puffs about this violation of the Monroe Doctrine.
If he's actually asked in those terms?
"Monroe Doctrine? Wasn't that the doctrine that JFK had that Marilyn Monroe was always to be admitted to the WH if Jackie was away? Great president, always admired him. Sad, very sad how it ended for him."

Two Russian air force planes landed at Venezuela’s main airport on Saturday carrying a Russian defense official and nearly 100 troops, according to media reports, amid strengthening ties between Caracas and Moscow.
A flight-tracking website showed that two planes left from a Russian military airport bound for Caracas on Friday, and another flight-tracking site showed that one plane left Caracas on Sunday.
That comes three months after the two nations held military exercises on Venezuelan soil that President Nicolas Maduro called a sign of strengthening relations, but which Washington criticized as Russian encroachment in the region.
Reporter Javier Mayorca wrote on Twitter on Saturday that the first plane carried Vasily Tonkoshkurov, chief of staff of the ground forces, adding the second was a cargo plane carrying 35 tonnes of material.
