WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump has once again reportedly made a wild claim about Fidel Castro and his relationship with Justin Trudeau's mother Margaret Trudeau.

In his upcoming book 'Save America,' the former president noted, "Justin Trudeau and I got along very well, but there were natural differences in that he is very Liberal, and I, to put it mildly, am not,” according to the Daily Mail.

Trump claims Justin Trudeau is ‘a Communist just like Castro’

Donald Trump continued, “His mother was beautiful and wild. In the 1970s, she would go 'clubbing' with the Rolling Stones, but she was also somehow associated with Fidel Castro. She said he was ‘the sexiest man I’ve ever met,’ and a lot of people say that Justin is his son.”

“He swears that he isn’t, but how the hell would he know? Castro had good hair, the ‘father’ didn’t, Justin has good hair, and has become a Communist just like Castro,” Trump added.

The Republican presidential nominee previously attempted to advance the same accusation.

Earlier in August during an interview with streamer Adin Ross, he asserted, “They say he's the son of Fidel Castro and could be. Anything's possible in this world.”

At the time, he also mentioned that he "got along very well" with Trudeau but added that the Canadian Prime Minister “seems to be going very progressive, and the people of Canada are not liking it,” as reported by CBC.

Additionally, according to former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham’s memoir 'I'll Take Your Questions Now,' Trump reportedly made a baseless claim about Margaret before her.

She wrote, “Once, on Air Force One, I was sitting with him in his cabin, and for whatever reason — maybe he had just read something or seen his face on TV — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau popped into the president’s head.”

Grisham added that the 45th president told her, “Trudeau’s mom. She f**ked all of the Rolling Stones.”
