Are they Venezuelans living in Venezuela? I think the ones you have to worry about are the ones still living there.

Additionally, might it be that every dictatorship is hated by most expatriates? I think that that was the case for the 2 (or 3) countries that the neo-cons invaded, and I don't remember any of those invasions turning out well. Reckless.

I imagine, purely as a thought experiment, if you asked a sample of US expats what their reaction to the "forced removal" of the current president from office you'd get a similar response.

8 million is a lot in a country that around 30 million population.

Plus the opposition won the 2024 election by a landslide, but it was stolen by Maduro.

The overwhelming majority wants the regime to end.
