President Trump has a little can of whoopass for Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua…

President Trump has always been adept at spotting talent.  He’s reeled in a big one with his new appointment of Mauricio Claver-Carone to the top White House post on Latin America.

According to the Miami Herald:

The Trump administration is expected to name Mauricio Claver-Carone, one of the most outspoken opponents of the Obama administration’s rapprochement with Cuba, as the new senior director of the National Security Council’s Western Hemisphere Affairs, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the decision.

Claver-Carone will take over the influential White House department for Juan Cruz, who led the department since the early months of the Trump administration and was a key architect of Trump’s policies to pressure the Venezuelan government.
