      Im not sure thats possible, atleast not quickly. Part of the reason for the fast retreat, was that Venezuela had prepared for a long battle of attrition in Venezuela, that at minimum would hold the US in a quagmire even if the US did end up winning. While Venezuela has taken a “strategic retreat” to contenue living, that doesn’t work if the next threat is you stop existing, and I am not sure the US can afford to be in 2 wars of attrition at the moment

      If the US government was at least somewhat rational, I would say the chances are low because their military is already over-strained, over-stretched, under-maintained and under-supplied to a level that is just not remotely sustainable and they cannot afford yet another front, not even against the weak Venezuelan military.

      But the US government and their Pentagon lackeys appears to be a bunched of fools and clowns with a gift for wasting resources on obviously doomed projects and have it all backfire in the worst way possible.
