The U.S. oil blockade of Venezuela is pushing Cuba toward collapse.

Will President Trump achieve what the Bay of Pigs disaster of 1961 or the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 could not?

Will Cuba and Venezuela by the end of President Trump's second term become constitutional democracies after decades of dictatorships? If President Trump can pull this off without waging war, then this would be impressive.

"Cubans are going hungry, suffering from spreading disease and sleeping outdoors with no electricity to power fans through sweltering nights. A quarter of the population has fled during the island’s most prolonged economic crisis. Now, Cuba also faces the loss of cheap oil from Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro’s regime. The Cubans know that if those oil shipments stop or sharply decline, it would be devastating."
