FIDEL CASTRO’S REVENGE ON THE USA: Senators Ted Cruz (R. Texas) and Marco Rubio (R., Florida)

Fidel Castro must be laughing in his grave for the
damage that the two Cuban-American Senators, Rubio and Cruz, have helped to
inflict on the United States.  

In the words of Senator McConnell

“The people who stormed
this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instruction of their
president. And their having that belief was a foreseeable consequence of the
growing crescendo of false statements, conspiracy theories, and reckless
hyperbole which the defeated president kept shouting into the largest megaphone
on planet Earth. The issue is not only the president’s intemperate language on
January 6 … It was also the entire manufactured atmosphere of looming
catastrophe, the increasingly wild myths about a reverse landslide election
that was somehow being stolen by some secret coup by our now-president.”  (M. McConnell, 13, Feb. 2021

This was in effect the Majority case for the
impeachment of Donald Trump. (But just before this, McConnell had voted to acquit
former President Trump.  His argument was
basically that Trump was no longer president – though as we all know he had
made it impossible for the Senate to take Trump to trial while he was still President.  Unbelievable duplicity and hypocrisy.)

After being nastily abused by Trump and after criticizing
Trump sharply during the 2016 election, both Marco Rubio Ted Cruz sucked up to
Trump. They supported him and his behaviour at virtually all times on almost
all issues. They were and are cowardly sycophants of the ex. president. They were
his enablers and co-conspirators before and after the 2020 election. Their
failure to fulfill their oaths of office and defend democracy in the United States
is unconscionable.  

The names of Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, along with 41
other Republican senators, will live in infamy.   Fidel Castro in his grave would be pleased as
would  his current inheritors.
