At the risk of speaking too broadly. I expect virtually no one in their base gives one whit about fairness, justice or the rules of war or anyone south of the US/Mexico border so why would Johnson engage on this? Even more so as it would just antagonize Dear Leader. I do wonder, why no one outside the US is taking all of this over the top behavior around Venezuela to the International Criminal Court?
