Trump’s so-called “war” on Cuba was never about freedom or human rights it was about revenge politics and optics.

He tightened sanctions, choked remittances, restricted travel, and proudly reversed policies that were actually helping ordinary Cubans survive. Then came the oil embargo—cutting off fuel supplies so severely that airlines couldn’t even operate reliably. Fewer planes flying in or out doesn’t hurt the government elites; it traps regular people, disrupts medical supplies, tourism, and basic mobility.

The result? More hardship for civilians, zero progress on democracy, and a regime that got exactly what it wanted: an external enemy to blame everything on.

It wasn’t strength. It wasn’t a strategy. It was performative cruelty sold as toughness, using food, fuel, medicine, and family connections as political leverage to score points in Florida.

Sixty years of sanctions haven’t worked. Making them harsher didn’t suddenly make them effective just because Trump slapped his name on them. All it did was punish regular people while letting politicians on both sides posture for applause.

I just saw the withdrawal of flights this morning. WTF is this about now? Like what is Trump saying to try and justify his side????

This man just thinks he can control the world. Does he not realize he is only the president of one country?

The Cuban people have suffered for so many years, and now it's about to get worse as tourists stop going. I can't understand any Cuban who voted for this POS in office.

Venezuela was giving oil to Cuba for their survival. That oil is now sold by the US and all the money goes to an account in Quatar owned by Trump.

I summed it up for you.

Trump and his whole administration are all liars on a mission to steal as much as possible from the American people.

Trump is the head of a four generation crime family first and POTUS second, so what is happening should not be surprising except for the guaranteed shocking stupidity of the loyal MAGA base.

I just hope some MAGA folks visiting Cuba are stranded there for a while and suffer the same fate as the locals do.

Rubio's Revenge! He's what passes for what's considered "the adult in the room." Rumor is that's it's a padded room.

Nice points.
But does anyone really know the underling truth to why this is going on?

Is it Guantanomo bay base?
Hollywood elites lost their property? or his family did?

There is got to be some rooted issue.

Venezuela, US did in the 1900 steal or attack they say, but now because of the Chinese , but more because of the crude oil refineries are getting screwed in Louisiana.
My guess.
I am not defending the clown, nor the Admin.

Why is The King of Kings wasting his time with Cuba when he should be putting the boots to Brazil.

Is he content to let his good buddy Jair Bolsonaro rot in jail? What is he afraid of, Brazil has a standing army 375,000, he can brush them aside with a blast of his mighty nostrils.

Trump will go nuclear if Wagner Moura wins Best Actor at the Oscars.

Trump has just killed Cuba’s tourism industry. Cuba is no longer a destination for Canadian tourists of any kind.
The airspace over Cuba will soon be closed and US forces from Guantanamo will soon be inside of Havana for the first time in over 60 years.
Cuba will once again become a vassal state of the US.

Genocide?:
Genocide is the deliberate, systematic destruction—in whole or in part—of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Defined by the 1948 UN Genocide Convention, it involves killing members, causing serious bodily/mental harm, inflicting conditions to bring about physical destruction, preventing births, or forcibly transferring children.
