Trump: US Could Carry Out ‘Friendly Takeover’ of Cuba

Friday, February 27, 2026

Donald Trump has suggested the US could carry out a "friendly takeover" of Cuba as tensions between Washington and Havana reach a new high following the capture of Venezuela's Nicols Maduro.

As he left the White House for a campaigning event in Texas on Friday, Trump said: "The Cuban government is talking with us. They're in a big deal of trouble."

"Trump on Friday said: "They have no money, they have no anything right now. But they're talking with us and maybe we'll have a friendly takeover of Cuba."

Trump's acquisitive language will provoke worries among Cubans that history is repeating itself: US financial domination of the Cuban economy was one of the main drivers of Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution."

Sounds like he's talking to his Wingman Jeffrey about some minor girl.

A news report from a weeks ago, citing anonymous sources in the White House, said Dummkopf Trumpf wants to change the regime in Havana.

This project is in the hands of Empty Suit USSECSTATE Marco Rubio.

That will give Rubio a jump on the hillbilly hypocrite JD Vance for 2028.

What accomplishments will JD Vance have, other than forcing Usha Bala Chilukuri Vance to convert to Christianity?

Speaking of Christianity... no, I wouldn't do that to you!

Howsomever:

Comparative Descriptions of Trumpism and Nazism, Trump and Hitler are sometimes too obvious to ignore... Trump and the AC are just as close.

At the link above, had those predictions (and 10 times more like them) been by Edgar Cayce or Nostradamus, people would be all over them.

Of course, it might just be that evil is evil, and there are people who know it when they see it.

Even as cultural Christians; and atheists make excellent cultural Christians, which is why the progressive/liberal part of the Dem party shares more values with a JC or a Gandhi than do current politically white nationalist Christians in the US that have Fallen Away from JC... and Fallen Toward the AC. (also in the predictions)

Canada is the 51st state - the whole country is one state.

Greenland is Red, White & Blueland. I hear our hospital ships are there saving lives.

Venezuela is under the dictatorship of Marco Rubio. The cocaine road has been restored.

Cuba will be renamed Eric Trump. Eric Trump will be known as Chad [last name redacted].

I loathe my government

What possible danger does impoverished Cuba pose to the United States?

Meanwhile we starve them of fuel forcing their economy to a halt. Who is paying for it?

the people of Cuba. Hospitals can't function, schools can't operate

Our country is an aggressive monster
