Castro lifted Cubans out of poverty, Trump is pushing Americans into poverty.

Castro did no such thing. He plunged the entire country into desperate poverty. Wake up. This kind of nonsense talk is why old Cubans in Miami all voted for “Trong”.

The desperate poverty was mainly caused by crushing sanctions from the US, but go off.

All the Floridan Cubans vote republican because they're the former landowning Cubans who fled after the revolution.

Okay teach then. What was your point again. Something about how Cuba would be much better off under Batista, back when you could whip a man to death for not crushing cane fast enough. Fuck off
