(MAGA News) – It didn’t take long for socialist-darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to find a way to blame the current Cuban unrest on President Trump.
She said on Thursday that the “absurdly cruel” U.S. embargo of Cuba, especially the “Trump-era restrictions,” were to blame while also stating she rejected the Biden administration’s defense of the embargo.
We stand in solidarity with the Cuban people and condemn the suppression of the media, speech and protest.
We also call for an end to the U.S. embargo and additional Trump-era restrictions that are profoundly contributing to the suffering of Cubans. pic.twitter.com/Fw6Quv5TAN

Her response was in alignment with the statements of Black Lives Matter (BLM) saying the U.S. was “cruel and inhumane” for causing the unrest with its embargoes while simultaneously praising the Communist regime for it’s “solidarity” with oppressed Cuban citizens.
We can’t make this up folks.
Meanwhile, Cuban protesters are being shot at while they fight for their lives in the name of freedom and democracy.

At no time did misguided AOC or BLM blame Communism as the root cause of the “pain and suffering” of the Cuban people for over 60 years.
It’s sad to see many libtards truly believe the communist Cuban government has become the victim of oppression rather than the source of it.
