QUESTION OF THE DAY: Do you support the military strikes in Venezuela?

President Donald Trump has rolled out his "Don-roe Doctrine."

That's the portmanteau the president used over the weekend when talking about the military strikes in Venezuela, the news of which Americans woke up to on Saturday. The apparent goal of the show of force -- which included strikes on Venezuela's air defenses -- was the capture and arrest of that country's president, Nicolas Maduro.

Maduro has now been brought to New York City for prosecution, while Trump has said that the United States plans to "run" Venezuela and its oil industry. Critics say it's a major presidential overreach, essentially going to war over the heads of Congress.

What do you think? Do you support the military operation? Let us know by voting in the poll.
