She's a vocal Trump supporter [1]. Last time Trump was president his administration did attempt to coup Venezuela [2]:

> Tapper returned to Bolton’s remark about having helped plan coups.

> Bolton said: “I’m not going to get into the specifics.”

> Tapper asked: “Successful coups?”

> Bolton said: “Well, I wrote about Venezuela in in the book and it turned out not to be successful.

> Before Bolton joined the Trump administration, it was widely reported that Trump wanted to use the US military to oust Maduro. In August 2017, Trump told reporters: “We have many options for Venezuela, this is our neighbour.”

> “We want as our principal objective the peaceful transfer of power but I will say again, as [Trump] has said from the outset, and Nicolas Maduro and those supporting him, particularly those who are not Venezuelan, should know, all options are on the table.”
