The dearth of reality retards like you exist in never stops astonishing and you never stop embarassing yourselves. I know somebody, by the way, who floated to Miami on a raft from Cuba to escape it. He has lived in Portland for the last ten years and is infinitely happier.
Major waves by boat
1980 – Mariel boatlift: about 125,000 Cubans arrived in the U.S. by boat
1994 – Cuban rafter crisis: about 35,000 arrived on makeshift rafts
Just those two events alone account for ~160,000 people.
Ongoing smaller flows (1995–today)
Thousands have attempted the journey every year since
Example: over 6,000 interdicted at sea in 2022 alone
About 7,479 intercepted between 2021–mid-2023
Many more reached shore undetected, while others were returned or lost at sea
Big picture estimate
Over the past 60+ years, hundreds of thousands of Cubans have attempted to reach the U.S. by boat
A reasonable historical estimate is:
~200,000–300,000+ people have made the journey by sea (arrivals + attempts), based on known waves and Coast Guard data trends
Important context
The boat route is only part of Cuban migration
In recent years, far more Cubans have come via land routes (e.g., through Mexico), with hundreds of thousands arriving that way
The sea journey remains one of the most dangerous migration routes in the Americas, with thousands of deaths over time.

How to tell us you're completely clueless without using the words. You assume that I don't know about the mass exodus from Cuba to the USA. And then there's the "liberal white women" tag line.
Talk about the "dearth of reality". You're the guy who's head is completely up your ass.
WHAT'S THE PLAN HERE???? Is Trump just going to go around the world, taking out other world leaders, making a mess, opening these nations up to chaos and civil war, and then on to the next one?
Trump is now talking about pulling out of a decapitated Iran and watching the nation implode into civil war - like Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, and Venezuela.
