It might have taken the Trump administration months to plan Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s capture, but it took online joke mavericks only a couple of hours to flood the internet with Maduro memes.
Even the White House has participated in making jokes, and President Donald Trump has made several social media posts.
On Saturday, the U.S. launched several strikes in Caracas, capturing Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, and transporting them to New York to face narco-terrorism conspiracy and related federal charges.
Highlights
- Maduro's capture by the U.S. sparked a rapid online meme flood, with humorists mocking the situation within hours.
- The Trump administration officially captured Maduro and his wife in Caracas, accusing them of narco-terrorism.
- Memes often compare Maduro to Sean 'Diddy' Combs due to associations with oil and scandal.

However, many critics—and memesters—condemned the action as an unlawful kidnapping designed to engineer regime change and secure greater U.S. access to Venezuela’s vast oil reserves. The Trump administration has since told the media that it considers itself to be in charge of Venezuela.
Many memes also compare Maduro, who is associated with Venezuelan oil, to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who has been found guilty of transportation for prostitution. Diddy has been associated with baby oil, bottles of which were seized from his home.
Here are some of the most popular memes related to Maduro.
