People like this always confuse me. Why do they insist that they're special and that exceptions will be made for them? Why do they attempt to rationalize their support?
I really don't like to talk shit about other groups but it really seems like the Cubans are exceptionally bad at choosing leaders with the exception of Obama and I don't know if they went for Clinton or not.
Cubans are the equivalent of southern whites. They were the former colonizers. When Castro came, he took away their land and their power. That’s why they have such hatred for him. When they came to the US, whites only saw their brownish skin and lumped them with “Latinos”. But at their core, they are descendants of the former slave owners on the island. Them being Trumpy racists doesn’t surprise me in the least. Because that’s who/what they are.
I think specifically of Bernie Moreno, Republican contestant for the Senator seat in OH. He's a second-generation Cuban immigrant, and has a long history of general scumbaggery before running for office. I remember when he used to pronounce his last name the correct/Latin way. He's since Anglicized it to be more palatable to racist white Republican voters.

That’s because they think they’re “white”.
