big grin!!
Why?
Are we sending anyone?
Send HARRY BELAFONTE....if he’s still breathing.
Nobody should go.
Grinning ear to ear. Good humor.
I love that the world is starting to not take the globalists’ alinsky methods any more!!!!! Ha ha ha ha ha!!!! Go ahead.... Call us DEPLORABLES again.... MAKE OUR DAY!!
By all means, send Hillary to the Cuban Nirvana with a big suitcase of all lweather pantsuits and whatever bulky stuff she wears under them and with a wink, suggest she buy a place there. I doubt that an extradition treaty has been made part of the new U.S. relationship with Cuba. Bill can visit her there to buy some of those famous Cuban cigars. Huma can visit to fix her server.
“I thought 0dumbass would go just to embarrass America one more time before he vacates the white house.”
He will continue to embarrass America for as long as he is around us.
The feedback, the rats and secret service got re the extreme hostility of Cubans here and still in Cuba against Fidel, put up red flags not to go to Cuba.
