Cuba should come into an alliance with the U.S.

The tourism alone would help fund their socialist programs.

They had a revolution to get rid of one fascist regime.

Why should they invite another?

The tiny-fingered, ferret-wearing, cheeto-faced s--tgibbon's behavior is absolutely disgusting.

He doesn't realize the US is the one who won't form an "alliance" here.
But rather, the US is enforcing an oil blockade.

So if we invade Cuba, does that mean Russia gets to put their nukes back ?

I guess agreements and treaties mean nothing to this administration.

"They had a revolution to get rid of one fascist regime."

So did lots of countries.

The Socialist regimes that followed were even worse.

You've proven time after time you haven't a clue what socialism is.

You are the voice of ignorance.

Castro was a bad man. Trump is a bad man.

Both were/are dictators.

Are we arguing about something?

Capitalism is doing a trade embargo to prove that Socialism doesn't work.

The irony is "free market" Capitalism is anything but.

Kwrx is dumb.

He's a conservative who doesn't fit in with today's Republican Party, but he's sure democrats are to blame for everything wrong with America.

He reminds of one of those people who regret voting for Trump but are convinced Harris would have been worse.

Mostly because they're morons.

Once didn't vote for Trump.

Trump is a nightmare in the moment
Harris would have continued us on the longterm path to destruction

There were no good options in this election.

Republicans hate Cuba just as much as they hate Puerto Rico.

They might actually hate Puerto Rico more.

Did you vote for Harris? Because in a two party system, you're voting for a dem or a pub candidate regardless.

Harris would have continued us on the longterm path to destruction

So you chose Trump and opted for the short term path to destruction and devastation.

Bravo.

I mean, thanks to Trump, Americans are waking up to the fact that our taxes can either go to taking care of the working class or continue to be used by the wealthy.

Trump is the best spokesperson the DSA could want.

That's not all he or his band of thieves wants, a moment.

And, even when we beat him, the entire country will be shoveling the shit he made for the next generation.

If Kamala were President, we wouldn't have war with Iran
If Kamala were President, GDP wouldn't be 1% lower because of ICE.
If Kamala were President, Goode and Pretti would be alive.

You know that's almost certainly true.
Just be a man and admit you were wrong.
Instead of hiding behind the skirts of "longterm path to destruction"
When Trump's got us on a short-term path to destruction.

Already destroyed USAID.
Already destroyed the East Wing of the White House.
Already destroyed 25% of cancer research funding.
Already destroyed American universities drawing top talent globally.
Already destroyed FEMA's willingness to help states needing disaster relief.
Already destroyed thousands of transgender people's careers in the military.
Already destroyed 81 aircraft worth up to $3B in the Iran War.
Already destroyed 21 military lives and wounded a thousand more.

Take your both sides and shove them up your "Independent" "Libertarian" Ass sideways, you fucking poser.

The United States will never recover it's standing in the world.

By electing a petulant wannabe dictator who works for Putin and loves Xi, Ergodan, and Lil Kim we have proven to the world we cannot be trusted to elect competent leaders that will defend democracy.

The GOP sold out this nation's reputation because the all have dossier's in the Kremlin with every underage child they raped, every illegal dollar they accepted, every russian hooker they were in bed with.

You look to the members of the GOP that fled the party over the past decade of Trump. They were tired of the hate pushed at them for standing up for our nation or afraid of the threats of death and violence from the feral maga horde.

One by one they all stood up on the floor of the House and Senate in the hours following 1/6 and all gave grandiose speeches of how Trump crossed the line by sending an armed mob to attack the Capitol resulting in death to police officers and magats alike. Then the leaders are summoned to Florida to kneel before his majesty and then one by one they all fall into line re-writing history that the mob were just tourists and they were hugging and kissing the police.

Mitch and the GOP had the chance to end his canidacy forever and put the nation and democracy above the orange king and they chose the orange king. EIther by threat of violence, exposure or bribe they signed onto the chaos and carnage he inflicted on the world and this nation.

Their legacy will forever be tied to him.

The legacy of the US used to be standing up for what is right, for helping people who are suffering, curing diseases and feeding the starving. Now it is all about grift, bribes, corruption and taking care of the people that already have the most wealth in the history of the world.

Kneecapping starlink and starshield in Ukraine while simultaneously easing sanctions and buying Russian blood diesel is the perfect example of that.

Cutting taxes for the 1% permanently while giving the middle class three year temporary tax breaks while also kicking families off of health insurance and food assistance is what the GOP has become.

My father always said the GOP only took care of the very wealthiest while stealing whatever they could from the poorest Americans and now they are not even trying to hide it anymore. They'll show you their bible with their left hand while picking your pocket with the right hand.
