    No but seriously, look,

    ​someone: ​Define “get Cuba done”

    someone else: Define “leave office”

    You: To surrender all rights and responsibilities of the presidency, whether it be willingly or unwillingly

    me: Are you in favor of this or are you just spitballing imperial decrees?

    You: I just defined what it would mean for Trump to leave office. Yes, I’m in favour of Trump leaving office. He never should have been president to begin with

    me: I couldn’t tell if you meant Cuba or the USA, and I’m tired of not being able to tell.

    You: I’m not sure how, in context, you thought I was talking about Cuba. You thought I meant the president of Cuba? I was asked to define leaving office, so I did

    me: Look, let’s make something PERFECTLY FUCKING CLEAR HERE. I’m not seeking conflict. You came on to me pal.

    again, me: does that thread make sense to any of us at this point? What do you make of it?

      I don’t know what point you’re trying to make. I asked for a definition of getting Cuba done. Someone re0lied by asking me to define leaving office. So I defined leaving office, which means to no longer be president. Somehow, you took that as me…suggesting Cuba should surrender the rights and responsibilities of being president?
