Venezuela's elections

jeudi 28 décembre 2017 à 01:00

Venezuela's all-powerful "constitutional assembly" has arbitrarily banned the three main opposition parties from the next national election for the "crime" of boycotting the recent local elections.

The "constitutional assembly" is really the "constitution override", since it serves to enable Maduro to set the constitution aside arbitrarily. The government obeys the constitution except when it doesn't.

The criticism from the US is ironic since the cheater is setting the US constitution aside simply by ignoring it.
