Ha ha ha. You KNOW this is fake news. Communism is utopia. Just ask President Alexandria Ocasio Cortez who I learned today orders Biden on what he should do about the border. How about that? And we all thought Kamala was President.
Promise what Trump promised the Norks?
A big beautiful Trump Casino in downtown Havana.
Plenty to do restoring the architecture. Plenty of labor available. They make $30/mo. Give them fifty for 2 years and cram the nation with used Fords and Chevy pickups from our nation’s salvage yards.
I’m thinking penal colony for our illegal immigrants in our prisons. Free their political ones and pay them $10 per our felons/yr. Win-win.
Is it just me or does it seem like 11 million isan’t all that many people for that country?
I’ve never understood, all the talk over the years, about how our trade embargo against Cuba has hurt them so badly.
If communism is a superior system of structuring an economy and society, why would a communist government in Cuba need any support or trade with an evil capitalist country such as America?

“We’re bigger than US Steel!”
It looks like nobody wants to reproduce in Paradise on Earth. How can that be?
Maxine Waters will want to know who is behind this insurgency and see that they are thoroughly harassed.
Did they organize via Facebook or twitter?
Havana was the Vegas of the 40s and 50s.
Other nations don’t have the trade embargo. So only trade with USA would save their economy?
I thought all those wealthy communist cubans were enjoying the socialist lifestyle.
But, but, their health care system is much better than ours, says the MSM.
It’s nice to see the Cubans gain access to the Internet to aid them getting their freedom ironically us Americans couldn’t have any more access to the Internet and we’re losing our freedoms like grease through a goose
