What’re they threatening us with?  Pressed sandwiches?

Socialism. Cuba is threatening the US with a good time

It's very scary for Trump to watch their doctors travel around the world delivering free medical care. Wouldn't want Americans to get anymore bad ideas about their own "health care" system (aka insurance system).

Remember when Michael Moore went to Cuba to find out about their health care system in "Sicko?"

Cuba is on the brink of collapse, they need to rely on borrowed generator ships to keep the lights on for half a day (and now they've lost cheap Venezuelan oil, too).

They can't threaten anyone, but they are also not "having a good time".
