Chuck Todd

The relationship is already slipping away.

Now, I have my own little interesting history here a little bit.

My grandfather, I stumbled across some things.

He was building sugarcane.

He was an engineer on sugarcane plants that they were building in Cuba in the mid to late 50s.

And one of the stories he says is he said he would be visited by CIA agents.

Every once in a while to ask them about Castro because he was in the role part.

particularly for our generation, there would be one seat at the table for a woman, right?

So he met Castro.

And in order for Castro's rebels to sort of leave your business alone, if you agreed to just put a photo up in your sort of trailer office, if you can think about those trailer offices that are parts of these, you know, sort of.

And so, hey, it's more seats than there were from the boomers.

And you get that one seat and other women would, instead of fighting to get a second or a third seat, they'd instead, they all, you know, keeping other women from making it, right?

Um, you know, his factories are being built, right.

And things like that.

Um, and cause I'm, I remember I found this eight by 10 glossy of my grandfather while we were cleaning some stuff up, Fidel Castro.

Rather than fighting for more.

I was like, grandpa, what's this?

And he said, it was basically, it was basically proof that you, that you paid.

to get left alone.

But that was the point he would make.
