- Trump on Truth Social endorsed a viral post joking that Secretary of State Marco Rubio could become Cuba’s president, saying ‘Sounds good to me!’
President Donald Trump reposted a social media message on Sunday suggesting that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, born to Cuban immigrant parents, would become the next leader of Cuba.
Trump republished a Truth Social message from user Cliff Smith, posted on January 8, that read "Marco Rubio will be president of Cuba," accompanied by a crying laughing emoji.
Trump's comment on the repost was "Sounds good to me!"
The largely unknown user, whose bio refers to him as a "conservative Californian" has less than 500 followers.
Trump's repost comes a week after US forces seized Venezuela's authoritarian leader Nicolas Maduro in a nighttime operation in Caracas that killed dozens of Venezuelan and Cuban security forces.
