The Trump administration is reportedly seeking the removal of Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel as part of its push for reforms in the island, according to a new report.

If this foreign policy confuses you, remember this, Trump is unable to understand government as anything but a strongman at the top ordering everyone to do everything.

Trump is literally incapable of understanding government as a semi-permanent institution that transcends individuals through a set of cultural values that bring people together into semi-organized coordination, to him that is all an illusion, there are just strongmen and weakmen and the people below them they order around.

The geopolitical lesson on display here is brutal and stark.
