Bernie Sanders is DEFENDING the Castro regime? In Florida?

Not to bring up a sore subject, but Gore lost by 400 votes in 2000, and that was with a so-so opposition from the Gusanos on Calle Ocho.

Not just South Florida, but pretty much any Republican in the southeastern U.S. was just handed a great big stick to beat Bernie with…

Per the 2017 Census estimate, there’s about 2.3 million Cuban Americans across the US. 33k in Nevada, which Clinton won by 27k votes. 28k in Pennsylvania, which is about half the margin that Trump won by in 2016. It’s not just Florida that stupid shit like this could cost Democrats.

I’m Cuban, my mom came with her sister and parents with a suitcase between them in the 60s. A year after my uncle and his cousin came alone so they wouldn’t be conscripted as 12 year olds into Castro’s new army. I’ve got extended family that were Marielitos. You can talk about a new/better policy toward Cuba without offering praise to an authoritarian who killed thousands and exiled millions.

I swear to the old gods, we’re back to the point where one party deserves to lose and the other doesn’t deserve to win.
