Someone should tell Trump that Cuba is older than 16.
Cuban expats are a popular target for human trafficking. Come down to Houston or Miami and you'll find Cuban migrants all over the strip club scene.
Trump is an evil evil man, anybody who can't see that is a sociopath or worse.
Willful.
Rapist language.
I would have thought Cuba is too old for Trump
He's talking awfully big for a guy getting his ass kicked by a country with a depleted military.
a guy getting his ass kicked
The Americans and Israelis have massacred an extraordinarily large number of people, demolished billions in critical infrastructure, and plunged the country into a bleak future of warlordism, poverty, and famine.
It cannot be adequately expressed how nightmarish life will become in Iran in the next few months, without a globally organized relief campaign.
What they've accomplished militarily is impressive, but it hasn't come anywhere close to breaking the genocidal grip of the imperialist powers around their collective throats.
Military force kills people and breaks things. The US military is incredibly good at this. Wielding the power of destruction in a manner that produces positive outcomes is the job of politicians, and the Executive Branch happens to be incredibly bad at this.
This man is a Tyrant. The comparisons to the Third Reich aren't just satire anymore; this is exactly what it is.
I deeply appreciate the small detailed Cuban flag on the Astronaut suit. Well done.
That's Ohio! It has always been Ohio! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQs7d8NgG9c
They were never satire. This is exactly who Trump told us he would be. It's who he tried to be during his first term but some of the checks and balances were still intact.
"You can't have any Cuba if you have not finished your Iran."
It's crazy how often he accidentally admits he's a sexual-assault enthusiast, like here.
How is this surprising from President Grab-Em-By-The-Pussy?
Trump seems to be speed-running the "overextend yourself militarily" part of the late stage in the collapse of empires.
The investment in Agent Krasnov is paying dividends
"The honor of taking Cuba" sounds like an old man talking about a young girl he's about to rape.
Well he does have experience
The USA is a terrorist country.
filled with a terrorist population
yeah, sure, a third of them aren't terrorists
but the other third? either openly approve or don't care enough to even vote against it lol. the bare minimum
The US has had centuries of the conservative white majority consistently trying to suppress the vote of minorities and the youth. Hundreds of thousands of voters were purged from the voter rolls shortly before the 2024 elections, with a majority of those purged being minorities. Sauce: https://sdvoice.info/trump-lost-vote-suppression-won-here-are-the-numbers/
Many conservative states put fewer polling locations in poor communities. They block measures to make voting easier like same day registration and vote by mail.
Stop demonizing people that have been systematically disempowered. The Republicans in the Senate are about to shut down all other business in an attempt to strip married women of the right to vote.
Only Donald Trump can outdo Donald Trump at being a piece of shit.
Mar A Lago is drone & missle range from Cuba. He should not be poking that bear.
Oh, pretty fucking please blow it up when he's there!
When I was a kid I always dreamed of visiting the USA.
Now, I will only visit it once. To piss on Trump's grave when he dies.
Cuban CIA, could do the funniest thing and nobody would know because it would just look like he died of burger.
I'm so glad I listened to all the posters who said voting for the Democrats was voting for GENOCIDE. Boy we sure dodged a bullet there didn't we!
“I do believe I’ll be the honor of – have the honor of taking Cuba. That would be good. That’s a big honor,” said the president.
“Taking Cuba. In some form, yeah,” the president confirmed. “Taking Cuba.”
“I mean, whether I free it, or take it... I think I can do anything I want with it, to tell you the truth,” Trump said.
Wasn't he trying to make people forget about the Epstein files? Because jfc that isn't how you do it
Spoken like a true rapist.
The fact that the American military is going along with these stupid endeavours just show you how ignorant fucking Americans and the military are. Spineless, gutless cowards who can’t fight their way out of anything including trumps diaper.
Get fucked Americans. You. Fucking. All. Suck.
Well, at least he has lowered his expectations down from Canada and Greenland, but given how Iran is going, his threats are empty for now. There's a little bit of me that worries that Agent Krasnov might be doing this in cooperation with Russia.
When you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.
Maybe if they get spread thin enough, Greenland can launch a counter attack with their polar bears and moose. Come on Latin America, stir them up a bit more just by being there minding your own business speaking "foreign" and looking tanned. That'll do it.
In the fifth year of WW3, the US is going to be saying the same damn thing. Gotta finished up your Iran before you get any Cuba, little Donny.
Venezuela is getting cold
“I do believe I’ll be the honor of-- have the honor of taking Cuba. That would be good. That’s a big honor,” said the president.
“Taking Cuba?” asked Fox’s White House reporter, Peter Doocy.
“Taking Cuba. In some form, yeah,” the president confirmed. “Taking Cuba.”
If nothing else, at least future history class will be fun.
Ha ha!
It's funny because no one in a position of power will try and stop him and he will fucking kill us all for his vanity, or to escape narcissistic injury, or because he's bored...
Wait.. yeah, that's not funny. Can someone please take away grampas nuclear weapons and put him in a home/jail?
I never thought I'd see the day when even childish Saturday morning cartoon villainy became this real.
Rapist gonna rape
Epstein files
The last time a US President tried to overthrow the Cuban government, bad things happened. 
This dude has to get got.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
