"Cuba is gonna fall pretty soon, by the way, unrelated, but Cuba is gonna fall too. They want to make a deal so badly. They [Cuba] want to make a deal, and so I'm going to put Marco (Rubio) over there and we'll see how that works out. We're really focused on this one right now. We've got plenty of time, but Cuba's ready - after 50 years."
"I've been watching it for 50 years, and it's fallen right into my lap because of me, it's fallen, but it's nevertheless fallen right into the lap. And we're doing very well."
During a CNN interview, President Trump made rambling and confusing remarks about Cuba's anticipated collapse, stating it would happen soon and that he would assign Secretary of State Marco Rubio to manage the situation. Trump claimed he had been watching Cuba for 50 years and that the situation had fallen into his lap due to his actions, though his statements were grammatically incoherent and difficult to parse. The remarks appeared to reference U.S. economic pressure on Cuba, including reduced oil flow from Venezuela, though Trump's exact meaning remained unclear. His comments were interspersed with discussion of other foreign policy matters, demonstrating a scattered conversational approach.
