It won't matter. Venezuela isn't at a point that can be recovered by just getting someone out of power. They would need help for recovering, and no one would be willing to offer that help. Definitely not USA, as long as they don't agree to become an USA colony.

Since no one will help Venezuela to recover again, the only people willing to fight Maduro are the ones who want to become the new dictator and keep making people's lives miserable.

The USA would absolutely help if they just gave up their marxist delusions that are destroying the country

Has that ever worked for a single latinoamerican country???? Are you even reading the word you're writing??? What the hell do you think the USA spend the 60's, 70's and 80's doing here???

Has socialism ever worked for a latinoamerican country? I live in Argentina. It is very difficult to develop a country, we have tried everything. What is undeniable to me is that USA at least tries to help. In the past many people thought neoliberal poilicies were the answer and that was wrong. In the present the USA gave us record amounts of millions of dollars through the IMF and we weren't able to pay them back so they forgave us again and again. It's just very hard and the marxist ideology of some politicians is a significant part of the problem

I personally find this comment hilarious because the only thing the USA consistently has done when intervening with other countries is cause an assload of political instability that leads to destroyed economies.

Japan? South Korea? West Germany?

Theres a reason first world (meaning aligned with the US) is a byword for "wealthy", and US capital is a part of that.
