Biden Further Angers Hispanic Voters by Lifting Cuban, Venezuelan Sanctions
Townhall ^ | May 19, 2022 | Mia Cathell

The Biden administration has rolled back sanctions on Cuba and Venezuela in a disastrous move being heavily criticized by Hispanic voters here in the United States—many of whom are in the U.S. because they or their families fled the socialist regimes.

President Joe Biden's administration mobilized Tuesday to ease economic sanctions against oil-rich Venezuela just one day after lifting several Trump-era financial, travel, and migration regulations for fellow socialist state Cuba, whose repressive government notoriously cracked down on the pro-democracy protests in 2021.

This week's events are being seen as a soft-on-socialism downslide in U.S. foreign policy that's dealing a damaging blow to the Democratic Party and its congressional hopefuls on the road to the 2022 midterms, sources indicated to Townhall. The outrage is especially reverberating across the free state of Florida, a refuge for freedom-loving escapees in the Sunshine State who've endured communism and all its tyrannical horrors.

"It's safe to conclude from these announcements that the Democrats plan to forfeit Florida — that much is obvious," marketing executive Giancarlo Sopo, who led former President Donald Trump's national Hispanic advertising in 2020, told Townhall. "What the Democrats may not realize is that these policy decisions will likely also hurt them with Hispanic voters beyond Cuban and Venezuelan Americans."

He lifts sanctions on governments who are spreading communism in our backyard and sanctions Russians who are NOT spreading communism in our backyard.

The socialists have learned that it takes longer to put measure back in place than it takes to eliminate them.

Biden is a puppet, a vessel for the left to use his authority to remove the sanctions in two years that it took decades to put into place.

His handlers don't care about the polls or party viability; they only know that it will take decades to reinstall what they took down in a year.

I find things like this worrisome, because the Dems know that they will be punished for this in NOV and they just don’t care. Why?

“He lifts sanctions on governments who are spreading communism in our backyard and sanctions Russians who are NOT spreading communism in our backyard.”

Russia has been fomenting communism in the US for almost 100 years. And they’ve been pretty damn successful at it. Just look at the Democrat Party and our public schools.

I think you're right. How sweet it is: Obama puts his most destructive policies into effect and Dimwit Biden gets the blame.

The American Communist Party is financed largely by Russia. The ACP supported the formulative years of Obozo, IE his granddad, Frank Marshall Davis, his Mom and no doubt others. That’s enough “spread” for me.

The closest allies of both Cuba and Venezuela are Russia and Iran.
