a tale of two presidents

Responding to the death of Fidel Castro:
.
Barack Obama:
"At this time of Fidel Castro’s passing, we extend a hand of friendship to the Cuban people. We know that this moment fills Cubans – in Cuba and in the United States – with powerful emotions, recalling the countless ways in which Fidel Castro altered the course of individual lives, families, and of the Cuban nation. History will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him."
.
Donald Trump:
"While Cuba remains a totalitarian island, it is my hope that today marks a move away from the horrors endured for too long, and toward a future in which the wonderful Cuban people finally live in the freedom they so richly deserve." (And on Twitter: "Fidel Castro is dead!")
.
Whatever one thinks of Castro -- and i don't know enough to know what i think -- it seems quite obvious to me which man makes a better steward of the world's most powerful military and most potent cache of nuclear arsenal.
.
God help us all.
