Usually, when this becomes public as a "proposal" it's already in place
USA still supports military coup in Venezuela after first coup fails; supporting a military overthrow of an elected government is in support of "democracy"

Touche.
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
If Cuban Troops and Militia do not immediately CEASE military and other operations for the purpose of causing death and destruction to the Constitution of Venezuela, a full and complete embargo, together with highest-level sanctions, will be placed on the island of Cuba. Hopefully, all Cuban soldiers will promptly and peacefully return to their island!

Or maybe Trump is inane rather than insane. It has been 16 hours. Enough time for Trump to surround Cuba with the US Navy to stop all ships.

Amazing that neither Sig-4-Brains or Rueski have objected to the possible larger, more explosive confrontation with Russia.

Gee. It's almost as if they're not Russian.

Looks like Guaido's "coup" kind of fizzled.
A few things didn't happen:
The coup was the wrong day off the week. Most successful coups are planned for a weekend and usually in the wee hours of the AM
The coup plotters usually take over the main radio and TV stations and a main government building.
The military didn't defect in droves. It seems that only some soldiers from the National Guard did. The regular military is too well compensated and allowed to run their own little rackets so will not defect.
The people didn't come out on droves either
*****
Apparently someone tried to head fake Venezuelans by claiming that Maduro was on the tarmac ready to take off but "the Russians" arm twisted him into staying but ... all fake news?
****
I have heard some people refer to Guaido as NPC Guaido but my favorite is "random guy", as in ... they picked some random (unknown) guy to be their "spearhead" for regime change.
...
Some say that Guaido's worth more to the USA as a dead martyr than a live fake president ... a shot from the crowd would achieve that goal. I think Venezuela should deport him to some other country, like the USA or Brazil. Make him someone else's responsibility.
Now the neocons are calling for military intervention. As if. It's a clown world!

Tom Luongo. He brings up a point I didn't think about: We browbeat 80 nations into recognizing "Random Guy" Guaido.
NOW what? Do you think the NEXT time we want the EU to recognize another random guy they'll go along??

You should read REAVERBOT's reply, in which he agrees with KIKI and FREM, near the bottom of the second page. Once upon a time, REAVERBOT was a real boy, and then Trump Dernagment Syndrome happened and he turned into a badly-programmed bot who can only say "Nazi", "troll", and "Russian".

Leaked: USA’s Feb 2018 Plan for Coup in Venezuela
Eric Zuesse
Admiral KW Tidd, of US South Command, the author of the leaked memo
A detailed plan from “UNITED STATES SOUTHERN COMMAND” dated “23 FEBRUARY 2018” was issued with the title “PLAN TO OVERTHROW THE VENEZUELAN DICTATORSHIP ‘MASTERSTROKE’” and is here presented complete.
This document was personally signed by Admiral Kurt W. Tidd, who was the Commander (the chief), at SOUTHCOM, and he was thus the top U.S. military official handling Venezuela. But this was far more than just a military plan. It was comprehensive — directing military, diplomatic, and propaganda, policies — regarding the Trump Administration’s planned “Overthrow” of Venezuela’s Government. His plan has since guided the Administration’s entire operation, including “the capacities of the psychological war,” regarding Venezuela.
It instructed SOUTHCOM:
Encouraging popular dissatisfaction by increasing scarcity and rise in price of the foodstuffs, medicines and other essential goods for the inhabitants. Making more harrowing and painful the scarcities of the main basic merchandises.” …
intensifying the undercapitalization of the country, the leaking out of foreign currency and the deterioration of its monetary base, bringing about the application of new inflationary measures.” …
Fully obstruct imports, and at the same time discouraging potential foreign investors in order to make the situation more critical for the population.” …
compelling him to fall into mistakes that generate greater distrust and rejection domestically” …
To besiege him, to ridicule him and to pose him as symbol of awkwardness and incompetence. To expose him as a puppet of Cuba.” …
Appealing to domestic allies as well as other people inserted from abroad in the national scenario in order to generate protests, riots and insecurity, plunders, thefts, assaults and highjacking of vessels as well as other means of transportation, with the intention of deserting this country in crisis through all borderlands and other possible ways, jeopardizing in such a way the National Security of neighboring frontier nations. Causing victims and holding the Government responsible for them. Magnifying, in front of the world, the humanitarian crisis in which the country has been submitted to.”
Structuring a plan to get the profuse desertion of the most qualified professionals from the country, in order ‘to leave it with no professionals at all’, which will aggravate even more the internal situation and along these lines putting the blame on of Government.”
the presence of combat units from the United States of America and the other named countries, under the command of a Joint General Staff led by the USA.”
It was posted online at the Voltairenet site, and was first copied to a web archive on 14 May 2018. So, it has been online since at least that date. However, because the photo in it of the document wasn’t made available via software which includes the individual symbols, but presented only the full visual image of the paper document, it still hasn’t yet gone viral on the Web.
Here, therefore, is the first appearance, on the Web, of the full document, that’s manually copied, character-by-character, so that each phrase in this document becomes, for the first time, web-searchable, and thereby conveniently available for journalists and historians to quote from.
This prophetic document — the source for what has happened afterward in and to Venezuela — might therefore finally receive the public attention that it so clearly merits.
The document starts with propaganda against Venezuela’s existing Government (and it totally ignores the extent to which the pre-existing U.S. economic sanctions against Venezuela had actually caused these problems), and it then proceeds to present the U.S. plan to overthrow the ‘dictatorship’. (Tidd refers to Maduro only as “the Dictator,” except at the very start and very end.
At the end, he commands “the denouncement toward Maduro’s regimen” and

Sig-for-brains: THE PLAN TO OVERTHROW THE VENEZUELAN DICTATORSHIP “MASTERSTROKE” 
yeah, that’s what they’d call it in print, in all caps.
God, what a clown.
And what’s with you pretty much only copying and pasting 10000 word posts these days - just too busy in your “retirement?”
