— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 26, 2016Donald Trump weighed in on the death of former Cuban leader Fidel Castro. A Newsweek story said that Trump spent $68,000 to send business consultants to Cuba despite the embargo. Trump Hotels reimbursed Seven Arrows Investment & Development Corp., an American consulting firm, shortly after Trump launched his bid for the White House, according to the article. Trump vehemently denied those allegations on the campaign trail and, in 1999, wrote a lengthy opinion editorial for the Miami Herald saying why he would never do business in Castro's Cuba. In his book, "The America We Deserve," Trump said Castro should be arrested and tried.
