Logically the best way to take Cuba is to arm Cuban exiles and send them in. Best place i can find to land is called Bay of pigs.

They aren't very good at being subtle. There are reports today from Greenland of americans clumsily trying to bribe people to sign a petition in support american annexation.

So dumb. I wonder if I could could convince them to give me a million dollars to run an operation like that in Greenland, then just defect with the money. Anyone got Dipshit Jrs number, I got an idea to incept

Reality is they've burned through a ton of their weapons inventory in Iran because they are reckless buffoons. That is surely the reason.

Let’s finish the first stupid f****** war first.  Then, let’s ignore Cuba, end the blockade and end sanctions.

Sorry, the orange moron needs another distraction from his failing war and Epstein papers. So expect this as a "win" he can feed to his base, at some point.

Cuba has been under sanctions and a “blockade” for decades. This admin isn’t ending that and neither is the next one

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.

Meaning we're going to be waking up to news that they attacked them sometime in the near future.

They are under siege currently, I consider that a hostile military action. But I guess the keyword here is immediate, so I imagine they want Cuba to be worst off to soften them.

If I was prez, id start by dropping all sanctions. Normalizing relations. Then id ship over relief supplies including a f*** tonne of solar. Id encourage tourists to go over there and visit as an outreach gesture. Id air drop self contained starlink sets, so they can get online again and let the internet do its thing. Inside a year, they'd be having anime cons, tiktok streamers, beach parties, and all sorts of other capitalist c***.

Isn't this what they usually say before they do it?

ScrotumScrapings May 8, 2026 +2
Yup. By now everyone should have learned that if the yanks are talking to you, they are just trying to distract you while reaching for a knife.

"Imminent" implying it will happen at a later point

Are they calling Trump a LIAR?!?! Are they actually insinuating that Trump didn’t know what he was talking about? Or… Are people NOT following trumps orders?!?!

Sure, and he was gonna make sure we didn't get into a war with Iran, too.

They’ve got to do something to distract us from the Middle East. Cuba? Greenland? Equatorial Guinea? Isle of Man? California? Just throw a dart at the map and take it over.

Until Trump orders a Cubano sandwich without pickles, gets pickles and loses his mind over it.

Trump will just park a few ships offshore and say he’s taken Cuba, “we won” he will shout.

If only USA fucked off back home and started fixing their own shit at home as much as they try to fix shit all over the world. They are the most corrupt, perverted and classist country in the world right behind full on dictatorships.

This is a meaningless article; it almost seems like a feint. As CIC who can declare war on a whim and apparently not be constrained by the War Powers Act, he’s likely to start a war with any country at any time depending on whatever phone call he’s most recently received or whatever random synapses are firing in his sclerotic, syphilitic brain.

They used 1/3 of ammo in Middle East. They are probably saving 1/3 for Cuba and another 1/3 for Taiwan. Now with possibly of Middle East using more, they probably don’t have a plan without dropping something.. Cuba or saving Taiwan.

A trillion-dollar defense budget and they run out of missiles after 2 months of a non-war. Where the hell is all the money going?

There would not be any need for US service members to set foot on the island. It can be actually blockaded, and is extremely close to United States mainland. United States could hit infrastructure and completely crippled the island in a few hours. It’s not a large country so it’s not like they can have hidden reserves deep in the desert like Iran can. They are completely beholden on imports from China and Russia.

It's not the war, it's the occupation.
