Well, if they stay loyal (to Maduro), the future is really bad for them. If they convert—there’s a conversion factor—I would say most of them have converted. He’s had very little loyalty.

In fact, I noticed today that some people are marching in the streets waving flags, and they’re very supportive. They have American flags being waved on the streets.

"She's a good woman, but the cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico — the cartels are running Mexico."

“We are going to stay there (in Venezuela) for as long as necessary. We are going to run the country until an appropriate transition is achieved. Venezuela has long been a failure, even in oil production.”

"We're going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in and spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, and start making money for the country. We are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

"This partnership between the United States and Venezuela will make the people of Venezuela rich, independent, and safe, and it will also make the many many people from Venezuela who live in the United States extremely happy."

"At my direction, the United States Armed Forces conducted an extraordinary military operation in the capital of Venezuela... This was one of the most stunning, effective, and powerful displays of American military might and competence in American history."

"No nation in the world could achieve what America achieved yesterday... all Venezuelan military capacities were rendered powerless as the men and women of our military, working with U.S. law enforcement, successfully captured Maduro in the dead of night."

"I want to thank the men and women of our military... These highly trained warriors, operating in collaboration with U.S. law enforcement, caught them in a very ready position... They were completely overwhelmed and very quickly incapacitated."

"We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition."

As everyone knows, the oil business in Venezuela has been a bust for a long period of time... We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, and start making money for the country.

"The illegitimate dictator Maduro was the kingpin of a vast criminal network... responsible for the deaths of countless Americans,
Maduro and his wife will soon face the full might of American justice and stand trial on American soil."

The Venezuelan gangs that they sent raped, tortured, and murdered American women and children... they were sent by Maduro to terrorize our people, and now, Maduro will never again be able to threaten an American citizen or anybody from Venezuela.

Venezuela unilaterally seized and stole American oil, American assets, and American platforms, costing us billions and billions of dollars... This constituted one of the largest thefts of American property in the history of our country.

"Maduro effed around, and he found out."
