President Donald Trump said Friday during remarks in Florida that the United States would take over Cuba “almost immediately,” suggesting an aircraft carrier could be positioned offshore after the conflict in Iran.

[...]

While the president’s comments appeared partly joking, they followed concrete policy action in the form of broadened sanctions.

No... AFTER Iran.

So, like the release of his tax returns AFTER the internal audit was completed (right? That happened¿?¡), it won't be happening soon. Or it will be happening immediately, because we "won" in Iran within the first hours. Our blockade of their blockade was just for funsies.

I hate this timeline. Can we try any other animals in the large hadron collider tonsee what happens?

Mounting a successful invasion of a sovereign nation 101: Give the saner nations of the world the longest heads-up possible, so they can help your intended victim prepare.

The GOP congress is spineless. Their wills are molded entirely by Trump. GOP = Trump. Remember Mini-Me? Trump has little mini-Trumps infesting congress. Vote accordingly. A vote for the GOP = a vote for Trump.

Their wills are molded entirely by ultrarich, same as the controlled "opposition."

I wonder if the spineless halfwits in Congress are starting to figure out why giving one man war powers is a stupid fucking idea "even with" a months long time limit.

He needs a distraction from how bad the Iran distraction is going, otherwise people might start talking about the Trumpstein files again.
