She said something nice about Trump… so she is no longer an acceptable recipient for positive comments on DU.

How do you define "peace"?


"In September, the U.S. military attacked a Venezuelan speedboat carrying 11 people. The army claimed that the boat was carrying drug traffickers, but Venezuela insisted that only fishermen were on board.

Tensions between Venezuela and America soared following the attack, but Machado insisted to The Sunday Times that Trump was right to bomb the boat.

“I totally support his strategy,” Machado said. “And I’ve said on behalf of the Venezuelan people that we are very grateful. I think it is the right thing to do. It’s courageous. It’s visionary.”

they had to check with him to see who he MIGHT APPROVE OF.

With Baba Wawa (Gilda Radner) interviewing Henry Kissinger (John Belushi). She asked what was the high point of his career, he answered in 1973, when he won the Nobel Peace Prize for ending the Vietnam War. Then she ask what was the low point, and he said 1975, when the Vietnam War ended.

Classic SNL (this part starts at 1:28)
