The raid was wildly successful, with no losses to American life or equipment. Trump has largely credited the strength of the American military, and a device he has dubbed the “discombobulator” for the ease of the victory against Venezuelan forces.

Trump made the announcement while visiting Fort Bragg in North Carolina, where he met and spoke with the troops who carried out Operation Absolute Resolve, making jokes and partaking in his now-iconic Trump dance to an amused crowd. Trump also made sure to celebrate the reversal of the Biden-era decision to change the name of Fort Bragg to ‘Fort Liberty.”
