Does Trump’s Pardoning of a Heavy-Duty Drug Trafficker Undermine His Position on the war on Drugs (Ostensibly) Coming from Venezuela?

A reader notes: They should put that cocaine-pedaling Honduran president on one of those drug-running speed boats and send him back to Honduras with a detour to the coastline of Venezuela.

Does all this undermine his “drug war?”

Obviously. But his supporters will always invent a new narrative, as bolstered by the “news” channels that work around the clock to invent stories that make Trump look like America’s hero. Not sure what this one is going to be, but his supporters have a perfect track record in explaining away their hero’s criminality.
