STOP THE INSANITY: trump says he'll have the 'honor of taking Cuba' and can do 'anything I want with it' [View all]

tTrump ranted to reporters that he had the right to do “anything” he wanted with Cuba on Monday, claiming that the island nation is a failed state and promising that the country was next on his list of adversaries to confront after Iran.

His comments came as senior figures in his administration have repeatedly stressed that the war with Iran will end in the coming days, while refusing to outline the president’s specific goals and skirting around the issue of using America’s military as the world’s police force.

trump was participating in an executive order signing ceremony on Monday when he was asked about Cuba by a reporter. He responded that he could “take” the entire island, and added that he would likely have the “honor” of doing so in some form.

“I do believe I’ll be the honor of-- have the honor of taking Cuba. That would be good. That’s a big honor,” he said

“Taking Cuba?” asked Fox’s White House reporter, Peter Doocy.

“Taking Cuba. In some form, yeah,” trump 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.

trump’s threats against Cuba follow a very public warning from a GOP senator who strongly backed the president’s military campaign against Iran, Lindsey Graham.
The South Carolina Republican gleefully stated that the president was targeting authoritarian regimes one by one, with Cuba next on the agenda.
