Trump is not someone to make such comment without tweeting it on his Truth social network.
Such statement is just a propaganda from d haters of d USA.
Trump never made such comment.

Switruth:
Trump is a stupid man. Why Venezuela and not Nigeria... Na Nigeria need this kind of treatment. Misplaced priority.

Flangelo12:

Trump is playing with fire.

Donald Trump

Please come and manage our oil for us

GreenCovering:
Why is Trump obsessed with Venezuela's oil. Not a single word about drugs again?
How callously deceptive can one be to act this way?

Westman001:
It's because the Americans was the one that set them up for the oil boom. The problem started when Chavez came to power and start removing American oil companies and promoting his socialist and dictatorship regime. Maduro was a bus driver, he is a thug and Chavez loyalist. That was how he was able to take over from Chavez.

This is a bad precedence been by this guy but it is what it is

What's wrong with being a bus driver?

By the way:

In 2025 and early 2026, the situation regarding Nicolás Maduro and U.S. oil companies is characterized more by a complete breakdown of diplomatic "concessions" and the reimposition of a U.S. "blockade" rather than Maduro reneging on private contracts with the companies themselves.
Key developments as of January 2026 include:
U.S. Revocation of Licenses: In February 2025, President Trump revoked the oil licenses and concessions granted by the previous administration, citing Maduro's failure to meet electoral conditions and slow pace in accepting deportees.

Forced Exits: While Chevron was the last major U.S. producer active in Venezuela, the U.S. government ordered it and other foreign firms (such as Repsol and Eni) to wind down operations by May 2025.

U.S. "Blockade": In late 2025, the U.S. announced a "total and complete blockade" of all sanctioned oil tankers entering or leaving Venezuelan ports.
Maduro's Current Stance (January 2026): As of January 2, 2026, Maduro has softened his rhetoric, stating that Venezuela is "ready" to accept new U.S. investments "when, where, and how they want" in a bid to restore the oil-based economy.
Historical Context: Experts note that while the Maduro administration historically "reneged" on deals through mismanagement and the extraction of resources from the state oil company (PDVSA), the current 2025–2026 crisis is primarily driven by U.S. policy shifts and sanctions pressure rather than new contract violations by Maduro.

Westman001:
Leave what you went to copy out of these. The issues is not a 2025 or 2026 stuff. It's a thing since over two decades now. Since Obama. Trump lay a 10 million bounty on Maduro, when Biden came in he increased it to 25 million. It's the same reasons you're hearing in the news today that both Biden and Trump was after Venezuela

And by the way, Nothing is wrong being a bus driver.

A bus driver, who is a thug becoming the president of a country raise a lot of questions.
You know how their currency is so so worthless.

Flangelo12:
