    Man, picture Cuba fully coming back online via solar. The citizens deserve it. 

  2. And the kicker is, I bet Trump is confounded as to why! 😆

    He’s one of those guys, treats everyone like shit, and then acts shocked when finding out no one likes him.
    Textbook narcissism.

    Same exact shit a few days ago when he expected everyone to help with the war in Iran. He was legit puzzled when all of these countries that he has been harassing and trying to fuck over refused to help.

  3. This might be a stupid question. But what stops other countries to bring aid? If I had a ship full of meds and food, how can the US stop my boat from shipping aid in international waters? A “Just because I said so.” can’t be the answer.

    Trump boosting China’s sphere of influence through his ineptitude is pretty much the meme of his presidency.

    Trump: rah-rah-rah, i’m in charge, Canada, Cuba, whatever, you’re all mine!

    Everyone else: OFFER REJECTED

    China: Oh hi everyone else, feeling lonely? Wanna make some new deals? 🙂

    I don’t know if you could gave given China a better gift than Trump. They probably want the guy to run for that whole emperor for life thing he “jokes” about, it would pretty much guarantee China’s future.

    Trump is so hilariously dumb he’s doing more for green energy than any US President in history!

    I’ve often wondered what the solar industry in the US would be like today if Reagan had not removed the solar panels from the White House roof. The US could have been the world leader in developing, and using, that technology by now.

  7. Hundreds of thousands of barrels of Russian oil are heading to Cuba, according to maritime tracking data, as the communist island suffers blackouts under a US economic blockade and Donald Trump threatens to take it over.

    The sanctioned Russian tanker Anatoly Kolodkin loaded 730,000 barrels of crude in the Russian port of Primorsk on 8 March, and on Wednesday at 1600 GMT was in the eastern Atlantic, bound for Cuba, maritime analytics firm Kpler said.

    Fine by me. If china wants to come in and save the day and help Cuba become energy-independent, it removes the teeth from the US government while giving them resilience.

    Trump has done more to help China over the past year than any other person on the planet. Fucking idiot asshole traitor.

  10. Oh look…. China is farming karma with Cuba as a direct result of something trump did.

  11. bro are we going to try to blockade CUBA again?

    What is this, some sort of Boomer clip-show fever dream?

  12. Making China look like Superman to everyone is a really impressive bit of deal making.

  13. this was likely to be the Chinese century already but this orange dumbass just keeps accelerating that process more and more. Who even knows what our floor is after the damage from him is all said and done

    To be certain, the delay in energy transition has been perpetuated by those who want us stuck with oil so we simply have to be tied to the oil rich Middle East. This is crucial to how geopolitics have been engineered to keep the US engaged in conflicts just like we see now. Big oils profits go through the roof! Russia gains more relevance than ever. Only a complete fucking moron could miss this. With an energy transition, none of this would be true. Stay addicted to oil. Stay addicted to quagmire. Make Billionaires Become Trillionaires.

    This is no joke as repugnants have done everything in their power to keep us on oil and coal and set us back on green energy China is now fifteen to twenty years ahead of us.

  16. That’s what we did on vacations. Go in with solar lighting given our friends we made there didn’t have electricity to begin with.

  17. AdHopeful3801 on

    Puerto Rico should line for this deal next, since it’s not like Trump has done a thing about post-hurricane recovery there, except for photo ops.

  18. 1stMammaltowearpants on

    How much longer until this asshole can’t keep making everything worse?!

  19. Cuban missile crisis 2.0 coming to you in a near future. Only this time, you don’t have JFK on the phone.

  20. Apprehensive-Care20z on

    USA almost started WW3 to keep Russia out of Cuba.

    And now, Trump is handing it over to China. What a clueless doofus. Hell, China probably bribed Trump and said they’d open a Trump Tower in China, for Cuba.

    China has it right in investing so much into solar. They don’t have to rely a lot on other countries for energy and/or oil, and when shit hits the roof with oil, China is gonna be banking on solar energy and have the leading and top science on solar energy.

    Meanwhile, America killed over 170 little girls on the orders of a pedophile president trying to detract from the Epstein files that would take down a good majority of the administration and the rich.

    I’ve tried telling co workers in the past that by rejecting renewable energy the US is shooting itself in the foot. We are now at the point where its going to be very obvious that the rejection of renewable technology has harmeed the economy. Not only are americans paying more for oil than they ever have before they have failed to develop the technologies of renewable power and will rely on foreign governments for that technology.
    Instead of selling american renewable technology they will be forced to buy foreign technology.

  23. How funny would it be if the US creating oil shortages, embargoes, and supply issues results in China fully dominating the renewables market, selling clean energy infrastructure upgrades, EVs and other tech to the world, and leaving the US completely isolated and powerless?

    As an American, it would’ve been cool if we were the ones leading the charge. We had the resources, institutional power and work ethic to dominate this market for generations. However, climate change is a thing, and if China wants to take the reins while the US is sitting in the corner sniffing glue, so be it.

    It also helps that Cuba isn’t wasting electricity on dumb shit like crypto or data centers.

  25. You know what, i hope the Chinese are successful in this. Even though they might have shady motives, it would be nice if Cuba could have solar energy to rely on.
