“Since his arrival to power, however, Biden has continually hesitated when it has come to Cuba, a gesture that many consider has to do with a bad partisan strategy in an attempt to win the approval of the most rancorous Cuban sector in the United States, especially the groups in Florida.”
Salient paragraph.
This has little to do with Cuba and everything to do with avoiding the electoral suicide in Florida that defrosting relations with Cuba would bring.
Which is ridiculous, they should give up on trying to appease the boomer Cubans in Florida, they’ll never vote democratic anyway. Opening up relations might actually give them votes for the younger ones, it the ones that have relatives still on the island they care about.
Obama had the right idea, and Biden is not gaining anything by keeping Trump’s rollback.
Dems have zero chance in Florida at this point.
