Final cut? Democrats are blowing it badly on Venezuela - they can kiss Florida and all its electoral votes goodbye for it -- and it's their own darn fault. Proud of yourself, Bernie? Impressed by your own-goal, Sandy? Thanks, Ilhan...Monica Showalter "Ever heard of Miami Cubans? Now it's Miami Venezuelans.
Fox News is reporting that Venezuelans are flocking to the Republican Party not just over President Trump's strong stance against the socialist hellhole in that country, but because the loudest representatives of the Democratic "vanguard," such as Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, are so repulsively for it. Here's the Fox story:
. . .As the country's problems worsen, Democratic Venezuelan-Americans question whether their party's actions go far enough. A growing number of exiles say they feel forgotten by a new generation of outspoken, progressive Democrats, leaving them less beholden to a party they had long supported.Issues that for years were hotly debated in an area of Miami known as "Doral-zuela" due to its vibrant Venezuelan community, have made their way to the ears of some of the most powerful lawmakers in Washington, D.C.The Venezuelans are angry that, as the country continues to spiral, some Democrats keep calling on the U.S. to pull out of Venezuela and lift all sanctions against the government.
"Luigi Boria, who moved to the U.S. from Venezuela with his wife and kids in 1989, agrees. He said he doesn't understand how elected officials could come to his community of exiles, many having experienced socialism first-hand, to tout those policies.
"This is something that's scares me coming from Venezuela ... we need the United States because we love this country. This is a great country. And we came here looking for help ... and we don't want that to get thrown out like what happened in Venezuela," said Boria, the former mayor of Doral, home to the largest concentration of Venezuelans in Miami.
