Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado is pushing for her country to hold legitimate democratic elections within the next year, signaling that President Trump's tough stance on the socialist regime may finally be paying dividends for the Venezuelan people.
Machado, who has emerged as the leading voice against decades of socialist oppression, believes "real" elections with manual voting could be organized in as little as nine to ten months. The opposition leader is making these bold moves as acting President Delcy Rodriguez—a holdover from fallen dictator Nicolas Maduro's crumbling regime—has shown surprising cooperation with the Trump administration's reform demands.
This isn't just wishful thinking from the opposition. As reported across social media, including by @Defence24eng, Machado claims her democratic movement "won 70% of the vote in 2024 and that the armed forces would support a democratic transition—if the process is allowed to start."
Trump's Venezuela Strategy Bearing Fruit
The timing of these developments is no coincidence. President Trump's return to office has reinvigorated America's commitment to supporting democracy in our hemisphere, abandoning the Biden administration's weak-kneed approach to socialist dictatorships.
"We believe that a real transferring process with manual voting... throughout the process could be done in nine to 10" months, Machado stated, according to multiple reports circulating on social media platforms like @Pettunia14's account.
"Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado estimated that Venezuela could hold new democratic elections in less than a year," confirming what many patriots have long believed—that the Venezuelan people are ready to throw off the chains of socialism.
The prospect of genuine elections represents a massive victory for Trump's America First foreign policy, which prioritizes supporting freedom-loving peoples over appeasing corrupt regimes. Unlike the previous administration's failed diplomacy, Trump's approach combines strategic pressure with clear support for democratic forces.
Will Venezuela finally break free from socialist tyranny under Trump's leadership? The Venezuelan people deserve nothing less than the freedom to choose their own destiny—and it looks like they might finally get that chance.
