presidential campaign and says i would never spend any money in cuba because any money goes to fidel castroy who flies so close to the flame he actually started hicham pain declaring he would never do something that he had just done. >> let's go local for some of the political fallout. cuban-americans traditionally supporting republicans as you know. with this story coming out, a florida international university poll has him leading clinton by a few points with that particular voting group. when you look at this, his hard line stance at least verbally and then this report coming out, how might this affect this key voting group in florida? >> well, the cuban-american community in florida is kind of split. there are people who don't care about the embargo, they tear younger ones. older ones care mightily. i think the one thing they should be focusing on is that he used them, he lied to them. there's not a single reason why they should believe anything he's saying because he lied to them before when he was trying to make -- trying to become president. and, you know, the fact that he would trea

[ applause ] should make the network really happy-- did you see fidel castro doing the wave? he doesn't quite have, i mean, he comes-- you know? it must be rough on either side of castro when he lifted these arms, he'd been wearing the same fatigues for 30 years.

( laughter ) >> stephen: do you think trump is an anomaly with what many are something that's already existing. >> i think it exists right now but he has allowed white supremacist groups and neo-nazis to express opinions and prejudices that before they were only saying to themselves in their parties or in their bedrooms. now it's all over

once again, a revolution involving, well, in this case feed out castro -- fidel castro who is not anti-american, but over the course of the revolution does become an ardent critic of the united states and embraces soviet aid and is deemed a communist. those who are being persecuted by castro and his regime is anti-communist. this occurs not without controversy, but the cuban story exemplifies this kind of liberalizing story within u.s. refugee policy. if united states is an extraordinary generous nation of refugees, it is because it's anti-communist campaign. it is because of the cold war. this is no accident, it is really the reason the united states opens its doors. over a half of a million cuban refugees arrive. to set foot on florida or on american soil, it makes them refugees who have protected legal status. unlike any other group in the western hemisphere. the reason is because castro was in power. it is an explicit part of u.s. foreign policy. the cubans are important for a couple of reasons. refugee policy is a version of an exceptional cuban policy. refugee resettlement programs are pu

one of which was fidel castro. in helping to liberate southern africa. in fact, i was just in the gerald ford library through the papers of henry kissinger and other characters. in july 1955, right before angola and independents, cuba helped the safeguards that same year. kissinger and the staff are running around with their hair on fire because they were worried the cuban troops might intervene in rhodesia and march all the way. they prepared legal memoranda which suggested the cuban troops might be justified in going to rhodesia, not zimbabwe, but would not be justified in going to south africa. this is what people are thinking about. i've got to say one of the reasons why the national government according to nelson mandela has had so much difficulty in constructing what they promised the voters in spring of 1994 was that we often are estimated to decisive role of the cuban and bring in the apartheid rulers to the table, but the cubans are not necessarily involved in construct in post-1994 which is obvious, which

anyone, putting money inuba right now doesn't go to the people of cuba, it goes into the pockets of fidel castro. he's a murderer. he's a killer. and he's a bad guy in every respect, and frankly, the embargo against cuba must stand, if for no other reason, he will come down. >> welcome back to "a.m. joy." back in 1999, when donald trump was first flirting with the idea of running for president, he was hard lining against the cuba foundation in miami. but kurt eikenwald said they had illegal business dealings during fidel's reign and in violation of the u.s. am bembargo. kelly ann conway denounced and trump himself had this to say. >> i never have been in cuba or did business with cuba. there's nothing else to say. i never did business in cuba. i would tell you openly if i did. >> pollster and the author of that explosive cover story on trump's castro connection. kurt eichenwald. and the response to your reporting on "the view." take a listen. >> are you denying that his company spent any money in cuba? >> i think they paid money, as i understand, in 1998. talking about years ago when it comes to

i don't admire fidel castro at all. and i've said that. che guevara was a contemptible figure in civilization's history. i know the cuban state as a police state, and all my life i've worked in a way that demonstrates that. but jesse jackson is an independent person. i don't control him. and let's talk about people we do control. in the last debate, the vice president of the united states said that i said the marines had died shamefully and died in shame in lebanon. i demanded an apology from vice president bush because i had, instead, honored these young men, grieved for their families, and think they were wonderful americans that honored us all. what does the president have to say about taking responsibility for a vice president who won't apologize for something like that? mr. newman: mr. president, your rebuttal? mr. reagan: yes. i know it'll come as a surprise to mr. mondale, but i am in charge. and, as a matter of fact, we haven't avoided arms control talks with the soviet union. very early in my administration i proposed -- and i thi

as you look up there in the mountains there where fidel castro's army collected many, many years ago, you can see the rain clouds there. the folks who live up there have all been evacuated as well. many of them went down to the college in guantanamo, the university at guantanamo where they are hold up now and will ride out the storm. they recognize that this is a powerful storm again because they saw what happened here four years ago. 11 people died. more than 135,000 structures with severe damage. more than 5,000 completely destroyed. interestingly, there were high tides here yesterday and the seas got a little rough, so there's already been some damage here along the coast to some homes, folks who had to evacuate last night. that's even before matthew arrives. we should begin seeing the real effects of matthew here, guys, probably at around 6:00, 7:00 tonight. >> kerry sanders, thank you in cuba for us. >>> breaking news on yahoo!. straight to dom. >> we have a reuters story citing sources saying that yahoo! back last year in 2015 built a custom made software program that allowed it

on december the 2013 at the age of 95 only a few heads of state were allowede to speak one was fidel castrot is because of the role of helping to liberate southern africa impact i was at the gerald ford library in annrd arbor going through the papers of henry kissinger and these other characters and in july of 1975, this is right before the independence that cuba helped safeguard, kissinger and his staff were running around with their hair on fire because theyn were worried that the cuban troops might intervene and march so they prepared legal memorandum that suggested the cuban troops might be justified but it wouldn't be justified in going to south africa so this is what people were thinking about and i daresay one of the reasons why the government and the party of nelson mandela had so muchrnt difficulty in constructing what they promised the voters which i think we've all underestimated the decisive role of bringing the rulers to the table, but the cubans were not necessarily involved in constructing the post 94 south african society such as obvious and one of the reasons why castro of
