President-elect Donald Trump said Saturday that the death of Cuba’s Fidel Castro “marks the passing of brutal dictator,” while President Obama argued that ‘history’ will be Castro’s final ‘judge.’

"It is my hope that today marks a move away from the horrors endured for too long and toward a future in which the wonderful Cuban people finally live in the freedom they so richly deserve,” Trump said. “Our administration will do all it can to ensure the Cuban people can finally begin their journey toward prosperity and liberty.”

Judging Castro is above Obama’s pay grade.

History will be the final judge, along with the still living relatives of the imprisoned and slain and tortured and economically deprived.

It is appointed for man to die once... and then the judgment. Face your Maker Fidel.

Yea, and a whole lot of Cuban Expats (and their dead), in the here and now, on our earthly plane, stand ahead of Him.

I’ll leave up to Him to be the final arbiter, in the beyond.

Remember? Castro wanted nothing to do with Obama when “ZERO” was vacationing in Cuba earlier this year!

Once again, the current occupant of the WH does not understand the ground rules and ultimate power of the final referee.

I agree with you. Even the most famous people of their time eventually become the equivalent of historical footnotes. The good that you do in the world is what will ultimately define the positive impact you made with your life.

Our outgoing president, with near-papal flair opines, “who am I to judge?” when reflecting on Castro’s passing on to the warmer hereafter.
