Heal what ? Cuba remains just as much a gulag as it did before Zero decided to “normalize” relations.

Why doesn’t he start by going back there and see how he gets treated. He can heal by standing in line for bread or getting locked up in one of Castro’s gay gulags.

Did he suggest they sing Kumbaya together?

Maybe ISIS could join them in sweet healing song!

I’m surprised that Castro hasn’t demanded Mr. Blanco be extradited back to Cuba, ala Elian Gonzales!
