In Cuba, the locals are in absolute revolt against a 67-year communist tyranny and all its economic failures. Expectations -- a critical element in igniting a revolution -- are rising, and locals are no longer afraid of the state. They are shouting 'libertad' in their hundreds of thousands:

Stop romanticizing socialism. None of that aid will get to the Cuban people. The dictatorship steals it and sells it to them in dollars, currency which they don't get paid. What the Cuban people need is freedom. Cuba will be free soon thanks to Donald Trump. Clock is ticking.… pic.twitter.com/FfaVkuqB4R

Here is the latest from the city of Morón, where the local communist party headquarters was burned to the ground:

Greta Thunberg has an incredibly out of touch, tone-deaf social media screed in which she plays at being on the side of the Cuban people, urging them to resist Trump’s attempts to undermine their Communist government. I wonder what she thinks motivates the riots on the streets of Havanna. Does she think they are anti-Trump riots? Does she think that if the rioters get their way, that they will impose an even more Communist government that is even more anti-US? These Social Media Leftists all live in fantasyland.

The Cuban people have been living in an abyss of dismal existence thanks to socialism which the dems are promoting.

If you can hold title post counter revolution.

Revoke their passports and inform Cuba they are not authorized to return pending a Homeland Security review.
