US President Donald Trump said on Friday that revenues generated from Venezuelan oil had more than offset the financial cost of the US military campaign against Iran, arguing that his administration's policies toward Venezuela had delivered major economic benefits. Speaking during a public address, Trump said: "How did we do in Venezuela? Not bad," before adding that the amount of oil taken out of the South American country had paid for the costs of the war on Iran "about 25 times over." Trump did not provide details to support the claim. The remarks come after Pentagon figures released earlier this month estimated that the US military campaign against Iran had cost about $29 billion. Other independent estimates, however, have suggested that the total cost of the conflict could be significantly higher. This is a total embarrassment. Why does the Republican controlled Congress not seem to care about Trump's continuous lies? The credibility of the US government is destroyed when Foreign governments and the American people know that he lies more than he tells the truth. When will Republicans stand up to Trump and say enough is enough?! His behavior disqualified him from office on a daily basis. He lies. He has no respect for the Constitution. He is corrupt. He steals from the American people. He starts wars and military action that have no legal standing. It's time to impeach Donald Trump and remove him from office!
