3. And Trump is planning to do what, exactly?

Thursday

Planning to re-invade the Bay of Pigs? Bomb the historic old town of Havana? Kidnap a 94 year old former leader and put him on trial for littering before he dies of natural causes? Kicking an island country whose economy is already on life support (not ours, either)?

And for what purpose? Seize Cuba and make it the 51st State, now that Canada and Greenland told Trump to fuck off? I’m sure the Cubans have that scenario on their priority list on the same level as a nation-wide outbreak of Ebola.
