I gave up on her for sucking up to the Kenyan.

They don't really mean what they say. Cuba needs a Ceausescu/Mussolini changeover. Gloria is too 'classy' even after the Kenyan had to have his pic taken with Castro. Its a bummer this never happened under Castro when Reagan or Trump was in charge. W would have done nothing.

They don’t want help from such a racist country. We’re broke anyway.

If Trump was President, I’d say yes.

I used to think very highly of Gloria Estefan. I liked many of her songs. I didn’t know much about her personally, but it didn’t matter at that time. Then, I saw she was one of a small group of entertainers that refused to be a part of an awards ceremony because Donald Trump, as president would be presently the awards, as was the tradtion for any president.

I think it was Kennedy awards. The 93 y/o writer for All In The Family TV show said he too would be boycotting the show.
I thought Gloria was rather ungracious in this land that gave her a chance to become rich and famous. I got the feeling that her Husband/Manager was behind her making a stink about it.

My friends this could be an important moment-perhaps in our history. Fact is we have the wrong man in the White House. The island is 90 miles away and we’re in position to turn it around WITHOUT military action. It would be a loser. Humanitarian aid? Good for those in power who’ll take credit and make vague reform promises. I say give nothing without a change in government and dare outsiders to prop it up.

Got to admit it’s getting better-Sir Paul McCartney.

Government has the guns but the thugs use fists. We gotta let this thing play itself out meaning a lot of people will have to die for freedom before we can help them. The UN will wait for us to do it and then condemn us. Gloria’s useless.

There is zero reason to send a single troop to Cuba.

she sucked up to Baracky because her daughter Emily is a lesbian.
Before the kid started making noise, Gloria was pretty quiet about politics.

I’m sure the CIA is there and they aren’t there to help the protestor side. My guess.

There's a reason for that, there are a lot of secrets there, they don't want to get out.
