Too bad for Marco we're dumping all our resources into the Middle East and not Cuba.

And when I say dumping, I mean like Trump flying around in an Airplane literally spraying ----.

The Embassy is .supposed to be our nation's representatives in another nation; I would think that sharing the sacrifice of luxuries, such as air conditi7onin8g, in a country lacking the ability to provide such luxuries to it's own people because of the blockade imposed on their nation just to unnecessarily increase discomfort and increase suffering to the people in that country. Instead, we could have never imposed the b.lockade which doesn't harm the 1leaders; it harms the people and the adding insult to4 injury by importing oil for the exclusive use of our embassy makes us 1look like spoiled jerks saying "we're going8 to make you suffer until you agree with us! but we'll sit over in the embassy, in air conditioned c4omfort."
It 6just shows what an inept moron Marco Rubio really is!

AHEM...they have been handing down edicts since...hmmmmm... let me seeeeeee... oh yeah... since John F Kennedy was in office.

Name one thing we "won" since the failed Bay of Pigs excursion into regime change... and the ensuing 65-year-long stalemate... and butt-hurt because no one plays along with our bullying of that tiny island nation.

Everyone does business...vacays... medical...rum... cigars... talent...etc with Cuba but us...

Ohhhhhhhh... and one more thing.... "Havana Syndrome" is real.

As I've indicated... they aren't cowed by us.

Build your bombs... flatten Cuba... and trash South Florida with all that radioactive flotsam and jetsam... while you're at it.

location...location... location
