U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said on Saturday that his administration would "do all it can" once it takes office on Jan. 20 to help boost freedom and prosperity for Cuban people after the death of Fidel Castro.

Trump had threatened late in his upstart campaign for the White House that concerns about religious freedom in Cuba could prompt him to reverse President Barack Obama's moves to open relations with the Cold War adversary after more than a half-century's estrangement.

Republicans closely await what Trump - a billionaire businessman known for his unconventional approach to politics and policy - will do on Cuba once he takes office.

13. After he ruins it?

Then blames it on Pres. Obama who will have been out of the White House for about 2-3 years. Damn, he has a hearty bunch of deplorables and truly uneducated's who will believe him when he blames all on Pres. Obama. He also has a media which will bow down to him and pretty much coddle and protect him while attacking Dems, which is a good strategy because Dems really don't know HOW to fight back. But then again even if they did know how to fight back, the news media wouldn't be covering them, because they're fixated on the monkey holding the grenade whose about to pull the pin.

11. Right. More free slave labor for Trump and his businesses.

Ugh, he just makes me so ill.

14. with Trump selecting the richest people to be in his

administration, the American people don't have a chance for more jobs, better wages or economy. The RICH has finally taken control with the large corporation. The steady decline of the middle class under Trump.

19. "Republicans closely await what Trump - ...

What he'll do 'on' Cuba? I'm willing to be that he'll do the same as he's going to do 'on' the United States, and as he's done 'on' so many of his enterprises for the past 40 years - shit all over it, then throw up his hands and leave the mess for someone else to clean up, without taking any blame for the chaos he's created.

Even the repukes have no idea what he's about to do; they have no control over him. I'm waiting for them to start posting photo memes of President Obama saying, 'Miss me yet?' once they realize how badly they were all suckered.

20. Hotels, golf courses, and casinos

just like the good old days. Make Cuba Great Again! Maybe even the mobsters will move back in.

24. Why doesn't he pledge to help us the American people first?

Instead he's already alienated more than half the population of this country.
