Despite everything, Márquez Duany doesn’t blame Trump. “There are probably too many people here,” he says. “I understand trying to get rid of those who shouldn’t be here. But Trump should look at each individual case.

“Like mine.”

Like the vast majority of Cubans living in the U.S., he fully supports Trump. “If I could vote, I would have voted for Trump,” he says. “He’s the strongest president when it comes to Cuba.”

And as always, enjoy thoroughly the life you voted for. Don’t let the door hit ya where your good lord split ya.

“He’s the strongest president when it comes to Cuba.”

"His reversal of sanction easing that started under Obama will further impoverish my homeland, that's awesome!"

What the fuck, really?

Ok I live in Miami and based on some conversations, some Cubans love nothing more than being the victim. Everything is someone else’s fault. Cuban govt, other immigrants, the police, taxes, it has become a culture of victimhood. Obviously not all, but it is definitely a trend.

“If it wasn’t for [insert perceived thing] I would be a millionaire!”

I’m not surprised they like hearing from Trump that it is all someone’s fault.
