Socialism & Communism Took Down Venezuela, Is America Next?

As Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro refuses to step down despite overwhelming opposition and evidence of his defeat, Venezuelans continue taking to the streets in protest. After years of witnessing human rights abuses and economic devastation under President Maduro, many Venezuelans are determined to leave the country before things get worse — with hundreds of thousands aiming to come to America. However, with the pressure this may put on an already overwhelmed border, should the U.S. be putting more pressure on Maduro to step down so countless Venezuelans don’t feel the need to flee?

Columbia University PhD student and founder of the Dissident Project Daniel Di Martino joins the kitchen table to discuss the terrible reality many Venezuelans are facing regularly, the startling parallels between the political climate in Venezuela and America, and how America should take stronger action to take down Maduro.
