The military intervention in Venezuela ordered by US President Donald Trump could become a major test of his ability to maintain Republican Party unity in a high-stakes election year. While the majority of Republican elected officials initially supported the operation that led to the capture of Nicolás Maduro and his transfer to the United States to stand trial, dissenting voices are beginning to emerge within the presidential camp itself. Donald Trump's statements asserting that the United States could "lead" Venezuela have, in particular, caused unease among several Republican leaders, who see it as a break with the "America First" doctrine. For some, this stance is reminiscent of costly and unpopular foreign interventions that Trump had long denounced. Outgoing Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene criticized a strategy she considers close to the old "Washington playbook," accusing the administration of serving economic interests rather than those of Americans. These reservations are not limited to the most radical wing of the party. More moderate elected officials, aware of their electoral vulnerability, have also expressed their concerns. Some believe the United States should not become involved in governing another country when domestic priorities, such as purchasing power, remain central for voters. The issue is all the more sensitive given that Donald Trump built much of his political identity on rejecting protracted conflicts abroad. He notably called the Iraq War a grave mistake and promised to refocus American policy on national interests. However, by stating that he does not rule out sending ground troops to Venezuela and by mentioning the exploitation of the country's oil resources, the president is reigniting domestic debates about the consistency of his approach. Faced with criticism, the administration has attempted to downplay the situation. Secretary of State Marco Rubio asserted that Washington's role is not to manage Venezuela on a daily basis, outlining a limited role focused on security and the implementation of existing measures. Several Republican senators have adopted a cautious stance, supporting the need to bring Maduro to justice while calling for closer congressional involvement and vigilance regarding the human and financial costs of such a strategy. At this stage, no structured opposition appears to be emerging within the Republican Party. But these distancings, however measured, illustrate the tensions that could intensify as the election year progresses. The Venezuelan episode could thus reveal the limits of Donald Trump's authority over a Republican coalition increasingly divided by divergent sensibilities. (AP)
