Trump tells reporters Venezuela is ‘dead’ and needs ‘big investment’ from oil companies
President Donald Trump claimed on Sunday that Venezuela is a “dead” country that needs “big investment” from oil companies to survive. Trump spoke to reporters on Air Force One as he traveled back to Washington, D. C. from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.

Trump has also threatened to invade other countries like Mexico and Colombia if their leaders do not reduce the flow of drugs into the U. S. Trump: “Venezuela right now is a dead country. We have to bring it back. We’re gonna have to have big investments by the oil companies.” pic. twitter. com/2Rs56fgWih- Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) January 5, 2026.
