President Donald Trump has responded to the resignation of a top intelligence official, Joe Kent, who disagreed with the administration's stance on the Iran war. Trump also suggested that California Gov. Gavin Newsom should not be president due to his dyslexia, which has been open about his struggle. The president revealed that he believes he could have the "honor of taking Cuba" on the same day as the island's electricity grid experienced its first nationwide collapse since the US shut off the flow of oil. Additionally, President Donald Trump is asking to postpone his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping to stay in Washington during the ongoing US-Israeli war with Iran.
