Have you heard what\u2019s going on in Venezuela? Let me tell you just briefly. Venezuela, as you know, a totally socialist country that was run into the ground by Hugo Chavez and his successor. Despite being an oil-rich country, they are flat broke. It\u2019s worse than the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union didn\u2019t have food in the grocery stores, on the shelves.<\/p>\n<p>Get this. The average Venezuelan has lost 20 pounds this year because of starvation. They simply can\u2019t get food. MSNBC said that they are losing weight because an oil company there donated half a million dollars to Trump and people are outraged. I know you\u2019re thinking, &#8220;What? What? What, Rush? What?&#8221; Yep. That essentially is it, $500,000 that could have gone to feeding the people of Venezuela instead went to a campaign donation to Donald Trump. It is socialism that fails everywhere. Venezuela happens to be the latest postmarked case of it, and the left is in total denial.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FfwK3WOaRL8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Remember all the Hollywood actors, Sean Penn and these other clowns would go down there and shake hands with Chavez?
