Breaking news! US-backed pretend president @jguaido, with the powers he (and Washington) vested in himself, will stay on in his make-believe post. Not surprising really for someone who's a below replacement-level used-car salesman
Guaidó said he "will not hand the Republic over to Maduro". Unless "the Republic" is his cat or his filthy corner of his living room where he plays videogames, it's not clear what he's referring to

It's no surprise, really. In Jan 2020 Guaidó lost the National Assembly (AN) presidency but went off with his buddies to set up a Zoom, US-recognized "parliament". Then in Jan 2021 the AN, real or Zoom, expired.But his self-proclaimedness and his acolytes auto-extended themselves 
However, there are some significant differences this time around. Above all, the other opposition parties seem to have had enough of Guaidó's shenanigans, in no small part because they're as far from power as ever. We delved further in this thread:

Of course, the only approval that matters is what comes from White House. Do other opposition forces have the stomach (and financial independence) to defy their historical master? Still, we're looking at an "interim govt" not even the opposition respects. What a time to be alive
The artificial extension of something made-up is about more than giving Guaidó time to figure out what he's good at. There are assets worth billions at stake, and nothing better than a spineless puppet to ensure they end up in the right (corporate) hands
