What will topple Maduro isn't Trump but inflation, corruption and incompetence. The cancer is in the Bolivarian state.
What the US is doing is forcing Maduro to expend his remaining energy fighting off aid convoys on many widely separated fronts. His security forces are spread thin and can be suborned at any point.

The George Pell police interview

The best political outcome for the establishment, including the Vatican, is if Pell is found guilty on appeal. Then he goes away. The worst thing that could happen politically is if he is found not guilty on appeal.
Then he becomes a martyr and the search for conspirators will begin. Even now it is starting to become less about the actual guilt or innocence of an individual and all about sending a message. But what message?

With the loss of the U.S. outlet, PDVSA is reportedly offering steep price discounts to attract alternative buyers. ... Time will only tell how much longer Maduro can cling onto power, but as long as he does production levels can only be expected to move in one direction.
