[00:00:00]There was an aircraft carrier that just arrived there, just this week, this aircraft carrier.

[00:00:06]Are you sending that there to intimidate the Cuban government?

[00:00:09]>> No, not at all. The Cubans look, it's a failed country. Everybody knows it. They don't have electricity, they don't have money, they don't have really anything, they don't have food, and we're going to help them along, and we're going to help them because the people because number one, I want to help them and I want to on a humanitarian basis, but we have the Cuban American population, much of it living in Miami and Florida.

[00:00:31]That's a great group of people, amazing group of people, industrious, I just they're great Americans.

[00:00:37]They've wanted this to happen, they want to go back to their country, they want to help their country. I hope they're going to stay here, but they want to go back, they want to invest in their country, and you know, see if they can bring it back.

[00:00:48]Other presidents have looked at this for 50, 60 years doing something, and it looks like I'll be the one that does it, so I would be happy to do it. We want to open it up to Cuban Americans where they can go back and help.
