  I am sure there are plenty of good people in the American Cuban minority just as there is anywhere, and it’s as awful for them as for anyone else. But yeah, a lot of people are having a leopards eating face moment, and it’s difficult to feel sorry for the Rubio types out there.

    lol what?

    Naturalized citizens can vote. Cubans had a fast track to citizenship over other latin american countries for decades.

    They voted for this shit, overwhelmingly. The only group that did so.

      And it’s not, mostly, citizens being deported.

      The people mostly getting deported didn’t vote for this so it’s gross to put that on them.

      Though you can certainly argue we know how most of them would have voted if they could.
