The Caracas Strike: What Was Said About the Timing
Trump’s claim was tied to military action in Venezuela’s capital, Caracas, described as happening in the early hours of Saturday.

- The operation was planned days earlier, but weather wasn’t “perfect.”
- The weather “opened up” and they gave the go-ahead.
- He watched the capture in real time “like a television show.”
He also claimed U.S. troops faced danger and that “a couple of guys were hit,” but returned and were expected to be okay.
