Trump pulls out of signing AI order at last minute; Suggests ‘he’ll be the one’ to intervene in Cuba; Threatens to take Iran’s uranium

“Other presidents have looked at this for 50, 60 years and done something,” Trump told reporters at an unrelated environmental event in the Oval Office when asked about Cuba on Thursday.

“And it looks like I’m the one doing it. So I’d love to do it.”

He added that the U.S. wants to open Cuba “to Cuban Americans, where they can go back and help.”

Trump did not answer questions about the aircraft carrier Nimitz, which reportedly entered the southern Caribbean on Wednesday. He also did not make it clear what exactly he meant.

Still, the president’s comments were a departure from Wednesday, when the president was asked about a possible U.S. escalation in Cuba and suggested there would not be one.

Calling Cuba a failed country, he said: “They don’t have electricity. They don’t have money. They don’t really have anything,” before adding: “We’re going to help them.”
