Biden VP Hopeful Rep. Karen Bass in Hot Water for Praise of Castro

What is it about radical leftists and their love affair with murderous thugs like Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez? Is it that they’re virulently anti-American or is it a secret admiration for murdering their political opponents?

Rep. Karen Bass is a non-descript, non-entity in the House, not known for pushing any important legislation. But Joe Biden has recently put her in the limelight by apparently considering her for the second spot on the Democratic ticket.

Her qualifications include the fact that she’s a woman and she’s black. That should be enough these days to put her close to the top of Biden’s VP list.

But Bass is an admirer of former Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. And that won’t sit well with a lot of voters in Florida and other places where Communism is still seen as an evil ideology.

Fox News:

U.S. Rep. Karen Bass, a Los Angeles Democrat who heads the Congressional Black Caucus, referred to Castro as “comandante en jefe” after he died in 2016 – and called his passing “a great loss to the people of Cuba,” Politico reported.

The phrase Bass used translates to “commander in chief.”

Yes, but she must be naive, dumb or crazy to make a statement like that.

She can’t win Florida saying saying good things about Fidel.

Even the Dems aren’t that stupid, there.
