    He’s probably shipping them to Cuba moreso to protect them from getting destroyed near Ukraine by all those missiles & drone boats.

      Wait till they find out that Ukrainians have some pretty decent SOF squads, and that they all happen to know how to buy plane tickets.

    Its insane how badly the US has fumbled Cuba relations, all because of a grudge.

      Yes, though it should be mentioned that Obama was putting things on track to normalize relations… and then Trump summarily ruined that, largely just because it was a thing that Obama did, and he fuckin HATES Obama.

      It’s fun. If the right don’t like a country or government, they are what they say they are- Cuba is communist, the Nazis were socialists.

      But if they don’t like a country, they will totally agree that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is neither democratic nor a republic.
