Some Republicans Reluctant to Topple Maduro by Force

Republicans are divided over whether President Donald Trump should push for military pressure to remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from office.

While Senate Republicans have stood behind the administration’s decision to attack Venezuelan speedboats they believe are smuggling fentanyl into the country, some told The Hill they think going into the country could backfire.

“I support what the president’s done. I think the question is how forceful we should do this,” Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kansas, said.
