Rick Scott: “Juan Guaido is the legitimate President of Venezuela.”

“We should pre position military assets and consider using the military to deliver aid to the people of Venezuela and to support their fight for freedom and democracy. We need to stop the flow of oil from Venezuela to Cuba by blockading Cuban ports. Juan Guaido is the legitimate President of Venezuela. This is a government in waiting. It is a country rich in natural resources with an economic foundation to thrive under the right leadership. All they need is the constitutional government that they deserve.” (08:45–08:50)
