Someone should tell Trump that Cuba is older than 16.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

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.

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.

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.

Trump is an evil evil man, anybody who can't see that is a sociopath or worse.

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?

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago

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.

He's talking awfully big for a guy getting his ass kicked by a country with a depleted military.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] jrs100000@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Talking awfully big for a man threatening a country with arguably one of the best infiltrations of the US intelligence network since the USSR. I'm unsure how true it is since the Cold War, but time was when you couldn't go take a shit in the Pentagon without Castro knowing about it.

“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.

[-] lividweasel@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

“So what are you taking next semester?”

“Trump Studies”

“Oh, I’ve heard that’s so easy. Just remember when you’re writing a test that everything he did was wrong.”

[-] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

It'll be the only multiple choice test where all of the right answers are the stupid options.

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.

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.

[-] Ilixtze@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

The American military is a den of animals and monsters. disgusting subhuman cowards; Bloodthirsty beasts.

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.

The last time a US President tried to overthrow the Cuban government, bad things happened.

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?

[-] Archer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Elian Gonzales is now a Cuban legislator, it would be the second time the US taking him into custody made international news
