The answer to the above question recently posited in the Washington Post, is INCREDIBLY simple.
Many of them, having endured the Castro regime, know very well what a communist government actually looks like. And they know Biden is not that. But what preceded the Castro regime?
Oh, nothing. Just your everyday, garden variety, old fashioned, Latin American DICTATORSHIP. One those in that community old enough to remember Fulgencio Batista miss dearly.
The truth is these people do not give a fuck about freedom, they LOVE a DICTATOR. And since the Orange Turd fits the description of a wannabe despot, they're on board.
Look, obviously, it's a little more nuanced than that. But if you're wondering why the Cuban folk here in the US support this wretched PoS, it's because that's their thing. They love the smell of dictatorship in the morning.
Those
who established what is now the South Florida Cuban enclave were
Batista cronies, no doubt, followed shortly thereafter by disillusioned
Castro allies who, hoping to establish a democratic government, felt
duped and balked at his coziness with and later full allegiance to the
USSR. How much overlap was there? I'm not certain.
I
happen to be good friends with the son of someone from the latter
group. My buddy was born in Miami and once told me how in a 'keep your
enemies close' move, his old man befriended the Batista crowd down there
and managed to learn about some fucked up shit. One of 'em was a doozy.
As
true hucksters, these folks fundraised on a scam the gullible were more
than willing to believe: that a plan was in motion to overthrow Castro
and bring "freedom" to Cuba. (Something, btw, Cuba has not truly
experienced since Columbus showed up.) Actually, whether they were
able to or not, their true goal was to bring down Castro and...wait for
it...install a dictatorship under Cuban exile and Miami resident Jorge
Mas Canosa. (Look him up, he was loads of fun.) Rumor has it, Mas Canosa
even had a generalisimo uniform starched and ready for the occasion.
Yeah...
Anyway, fuck the whole of these scumbags.
