PRESIDENT TRUMP IS SAID TO BE INCREASINGLY FRUSTRATED THAT THE CUBAN GOVERNMENT REMAINS IN POWER DESPITE MONTHS OF US PRESSURE.
SOURCES SAY HE HAS BEEN ASKING ADVISERS WHY EFFORTS TO WEAKEN THE REGIME HAVE NOT SUCCEEDED.
@NBCNews
@FirstSquawk@NBCNews If only we had some sort of world class intelligence agency that could answer this? Maybe a Central Intelligence Agency or something?
Nah, better ask the ignorant sycophants, they will know what is wrong.
@FirstSquawk@NBCNews Well unfortunately they know that Trump has a tendency to back down under pressure so his tactics aren’t working as well and we need to focus more on domestic issues anyways
@FirstSquawk@NBCNews Regime change by pressure and sanctions alone hasn't worked in decades. If Trump's frustrated, it's because the playbook is old and Cuba's got Chinese/Russian backing. Either something shifts on the economic lever or this stays rhetorical
@FirstSquawk@NBCNews Great coverage, appreciate the update. Seems like they're running into a brick wall. Any reporting on how ordinary Cubans are coping?
