Yes, that's right. MSNBC is blaming Venezuela and their violent protests on... Donald Trump.

Yes, the same Venezuelan riots and protests we were writing about last week (see Thanks Gun Control! Helpless Venezuelan SHOT by Socialist Militia and BREAKING: Socialist Venezuelan Government SEIZES General Motors Plant). Apparently Rachel Maddow didn't embarrass herself enough by leaking that Donald Trump nontroversial taxes. Silly boy-girl. Facts are for kids!

Here, let Tucker Carlson explain...

So given all of this, who did MSNBC blame for the turmoil there? If you guessed Donald Trump give yourself a million worthless Venezuelan Bolivars as a prize. According to MSNBC, the real reason Venezuelans are upset is that CITGO petroleum — that’s a subsidiary of the state oil company — donated money to Trump’s inaugural fund.

That’s a crime according to MSNBC. Apparently a sin worse than [the Venezuelan government] completely destroying their own country.

I'm at a loss here. Even by MSNBC standards, how does this kind of creap even make it out of a pitch meeting? I mean, nobody in the room stopped to just say "... huh?"

RACHEL MADDOW: STOP THE PRESSES! I found the definitive link between Donald Trump and the unrest in Venezuela!!!

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Rachel, did your imaginary friend slip you some oppo under your door again?

RACHEL MADDOW: Maaaaaaaybe...

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Meh, it's your show. (updates LinkedIn profile)

Anything to avoid admitting that what REALLY caused Venezuela... are the very policies that leftists at MSNBC hold near and dear to their hearts.
