Donny Deutsch Disses Rep. Diaz-Balart: Statement on Cuba Deal 'Inane'

It's good that we live in a country where citizens feel free to criticize elected officials to their face. Just wondering, though: when was the last time that freedom was exercised on MSNBC to tell a Dem official that something he said was "inane?"

On today's Morning Joe, Donny Deutsch angrily asked Republican Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart of Miami "why do you say an inane thing like that?" Deutsch's diss came in the context of an exchange in which Diaz-Balart told Donny that his notion that the Cuba deal was "liberating" for the Cuban people was "naive." Deutsch later retaliated in kind, calling Diaz-Balart naive.

If Joe Scarborough and Mark Cuban had a baby it’d be like Donny Deutsch.

On the Left and in American Media, it’s an article of faith that Fidel Castro is the Moses of Socialism and Cuba is the ideal society and a Socialist Utopia.

Reflexive reciting of praise of Castro and Cuba is confirmation of Left Wing dogma and a basic profession Left Wing faith.

Reflexive apology and defense of Castro and Cuba is basic defense of the faith and confirmation of Left Wing faithfulness on the part of the faithful

Deutsch is a moron, as are all on MSNBC including Morning ‘coke’ Joe S.

We should watch with interest about the promised 53 dissidents in Cuban jails who are to be released in this deal also (something obamaumao glossed over if at all, because to admit they are there is to expose the Gulag he LOVES). Let’s just see if they are released, and WHO they are, and if they are released to the US or back to the prison yard of the Cuban Gulag.

The idea that “opening” up Cuba (which is propped up on Canadian and Euro/Brit/Spanish tourism money- which goes directly into the pockets of the ruling junta of venture marxists) will somehow devolve into a free society is a complete utter pipe dream. The Chamber of Commerce and the Pigford settlement “farmers” who are harvesting this bilge apparently don’t realize that Cuba HAS NO MONEY but ours.

So, just as Venezuela and Russia have crashed on oil revenue and backed away from Cuba, our marxist-in-chief mack daddy butt boy obamaumao throws them a lifeline. ALL without consulting Congress. Further erosion of the money situation could have had Cuba fall— but NO- obamaumao had to help out.

Helms-Burton Act does NOT permit him to do any kind of “normalization”— our bwave wepublicans need this to be FIRST on the list- stop it via joint resolution, which is all the Act requires.

This is not about “liberating” Cuba, it’s about the destruction and eventual enslavement of America.

Mark, a hearty thanks for doing what you do each day, watching MSNBC so we don’t have to.

My TV would not last 2 days if I was doing this.
