As expected, the labeling of Venezuela as a "national threat" and the following sanctions accomplished nothing but strengthen Maduro.
From The Economist:
"Critics of America's initiative to impose sanctions on Venezuelan officials argued that its only practical effect would be to give Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela’s embattled president, a propaganda tool. That is exactly what it has done. Far from provoking cracks in the regime, as the administration hopes, the sanctions are likely to solidify it http://econ.st/1IkP3xU"
