41. With him, it's personal gain and loss aversion.

YMMV, but I suspect that with Epstein disclosures, especially "if" he is the head honcho of the worldwide sex and extortion ring (1), he stands to lose everything. And even Argentina might be hard pressed to take him (Saudi and Qatar, who knows?)

Marginal gain by attacking Venezuela but 100% loss if he fails to distract from L'Affaire Epstein. (2)

Just my two trillion dollar's worth.

Just hear me out, what if he's not just in the Epstein files
But actually a part of the trafficking ring. He ran the Rump Modeling Agency and owned the Miss Teen America Pagent.

(2) With disclosures to come, not just the ones sealed in the ion trap at DOJ, he seems to be losing this Armageddon battle.
