Interesting. Is he seeing the light or reading the tea leaves? (Think Maduro/Ayatollas.)

He is the one who has been meeting with Rubio’s men on behalf of the Cuban government and the Castro family.

Grandson. No mention of his name. Maybe they interviewed Trudeau.

Claiming to be a capitalist sort of rules out baby Justin, doesn’t it. How many grandsons does Fidel have?

Fidel had 11 recognized children, including Alina, an anticommunist activist. No idea if she produced children or has other grandchildren.

No idea on the number of illegitimate children though Trudeau's resemblance is unmistakable.

Fidel’s grandson is playing the same game as Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua - abandon communism in favor of the old crony capitalism of the Padron system while staying in power (and lining your own pockets)

Sandro Castro, the 33-year-old grandson of Fidel Castro, has emerged as a prominent social media influencer in Cuba, using his Instagram platform with over 150,000 followers to criticize the Cuban government and highlight the country's worsening economic crisis. Based in Havana, he flaunts a luxurious lifestyle—featuring luxury cars, private parties, and foreign appliances—that sharply contrasts with the widespread poverty, blackouts, and shortages endured by most Cubans.

I think he see the writing on the wlls, that possibly threaten his lifestyle, so pretend to be one of them. Hopefully, he may make a difference for his people. I pray that he will, for the sake of his people.

I have read several times lately that Marco Rubio is holding talks with the grandson about taking the leadership of Cuba.

This grandson fella sounds like a real flake. Hope Rubio doesn’t buy into it but you gotta start somewhere.

Pull the rug out from under the entire ruling class and send in Friedman’s Chicago Boys. They could turn the country around in 10 short years.

Yep, lead the great life off of Castro’ wealth…… guess he does not follow: Communists believe that people should share wealth so that no one is too poor, no one is too rich, and everyone has enough to survive and have a good life.

Question, if Cuba becomes a Capitalist Country, will the rest of NYC move there? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

An illegitimate daughter of Fidel Castro defected to the US. I heard her speak some years ago. Very much against the regime.

Tell him to take control of the government, expell the Russians, Chinese, North Koreans, release all political prisoners and renounce communism. Then we can talk and supply all the oil they need.
