President Donald Trump has been caught in a lie after going back on a decision to release a video showing the controversial US military strike on a Venezuelan boat that allegedly was trafficking drugs into the United States. Going back on a decision is fine, but Trump is going further by even claiming that he never said he would release the clip.
The Trump administration came in with a very strong posture against drug traffickers. The president has done it all: he has threatened to punish neighbors with tariffs, has gotten into an all-out war of words with South American presidents, and now he’s caught up in a web of deception about why and how he’s been bombing narco ships in the Caribbean.
