They were selling all their oil to like pennies on the dollar to China.

And now we really get to be the ones to export all that and secure that.

And there's also a lot of other natural resources that Venezuela has.

So I think it was flawlessly executed by President Trump.

And I think he took several opinions and meshed that together.

And I was a skeptic, but I'm very, very pleased with the outcome.

Yeah, so I just reread Marco Rubio's book because I was trying to get inside of his head as we were going through all these Venezuela negotiations.

He was son of Cuban.

Yeah, and his father's dying wish was for him to liberate Cuba.

I think for Rubio, this is like – and even Venezuela.

Venezuela, it was weird.

Like Maduro's security guards were all Cuban.

And so the Cuban intelligence, they were directly linked.

So I think –

Rubio's thought was, if you take down Venezuela and cut off Cuba, that was their only financial resource and lifeline.

For me, I'm less interested in Cuba, because they have no natural resources.

Yes, they have beautiful beaches, it's a cool tourism spot, but Venezuela was a strategic, incredibly important country of 23 million people on a coast with a ton of oil, and more importantly, they have a lot of gas.

Cuba, you can build hotels at the end of this.

But for Ruby, I get that it's deeply personal.

You could topple the Cuba regime in like eight seconds.
