You're assuming he's talking about using this as an excuse to invade Venezuela. I'm assuming he'll use it as an excuse to invade Canada and Mexico. He's already made up bullshit about how it's pouring over our border, and he's already threatened our country with annexation.

There's no way that happens. The oligarchs would lose money in the conflict. They gain money in a Venezuela conflict presumably. They have a lot of oil, like almost Saudi levels of oil, and there isnt enough trade with Venezuela for a war to upset the pocket books of the wealthy.
