Senator Lindsey Graham, who has been one of the biggest voices in Congress for regime change in Iran, revealed what country may be next on Trump’s “hit list.”
In a recent interview on Fox News, Sen. Graham praised President Trump for his recent military operations in Iran, which have resulted in the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Graham went on to say that Trump did what Ronald Reagan failed to do and shared that Cuba may be the next country to fall.
Yahoo News reported more details on Graham’s remarks about Trump’s next military moves:
First Venezuela, then Iran — and now Cuba.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox News’ Trey Gowdy on Sunday that the U.S. under President Donald Trump will next target the communist-led Caribbean island for regime change.
“Cuba is next,” said Graham. “They are going to fall. This communist dictatorship in Cuba, their days are numbered.”
Graham, a Trump sycophant, suggested the U.S. president was the right leader for the job as he highlighted how the question of how to deal with now-removed Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro had been discussed by “everybody,” but it was Trump who “got him in jail” on narco-terrorism charges after having him captured and brought to New York.

Graham’s comments don’t come out of thin air.
President Trump, on multiple occasions, stated that Cuba would soon fall.
NBC News reported the 47th President went as far as saying, “We may do a friendly takeover of Cuba,”:
President Donald Trump said Friday that the U.S. is in talks with Havana and raised the possibility of a “friendly takeover of Cuba” without offering any details on what he meant.
ADVERTISEMENTSpeaking to reporters outside the White House as he left for a trip to Texas, Trump said Secretary of State Marco Rubio was in discussions with Cuban leaders “at a very high level.”
“The Cuban government is talking with us,” the president said. “They have no money. They have no anything right now. But they’re talking to us, and maybe we’ll have a friendly takeover of Cuba.”
He added: “We could very well end up having a friendly takeover of Cuba.”
Trump didn’t clarify his comments but seemed to indicate that the situation with Cuba, a communist-run island that has been among Washington’s bitterest adversaries for decades, was coming to a critical point. The White House did not respond to requests for more information Friday.
The president also said that Cuba “is, to put it mildly, a failed nation” and “they want our help.”
His remarks came two days after the Cuban government reported that a Florida-registered speedboat carrying 10 armed Cubans from the U.S. opened fire on soldiers off the island’s north coast. Four of the armed Cubans were killed, and six were injured in responding gunfire, according to Cuba’s government. One Cuban official also was injured.
