While the conditions that had sustained Cuban privileging for over half a century no longer prevailed – the Cold War concern with defeating global Communism, and, then, political pressure from Cuban American beneficiaries of earlier entitlements to continue privileging Cuban immigrants – the chapter addresses how, in his effort to preserve “America for Americans,” Trump made no exception for Cubans. His administration de facto retracted Cuban entitlements the Obama administration had left intact; it detained and deported unauthorized Cuban land entrants; and it transformed the Mexican and Central American governments into agents of Cuban, as well as other immigrant, exclusion. Cubans lost most of their earlier entitlements, and suffered as a result.
