TRUMP: ‘THEY’RE TREATING U.S. WITH GREAT RESPECT’: In a wide-ranging, two-hour session with four New York Times reporters in the White House last night — during which the journalists were allowed to listen in on a phone call with President Gustavo Petro of Colombia — President Donald Trump made clear he is in no hurry to replace Venezuela’s current government comprised of regime holdovers and headed by Nicolas Maduro’s former vice president Delcy Rodríguez.

“They’re treating us with great respect. As you know, we’re getting along very well with the administration that is there right now,” Trump told the Times. “They’re giving us everything that we feel is necessary.”
