[Trump] has repatriated more than 1,600 Cubans in 2025, according to the Cuban government. That is about double the number of Cubans who were repatriated in 2024. And in the years that Mr. Trump has been president, he has sent more Cubans back than his three predecessors.
Families, businesses and communities that once felt removed from or immune to immigration enforcement now must face it head-on. Some Floridians worry that these deportations could stain the state’s proud Cuban identity, turning older immigrants against newer ones.

You didn’t think they were going to vote for a woman did you?
Especially a black woman.
This is a sad but unfortunate truth in the Latin culture as a whole. When I lived in South Florida I met one from every single South and mid American country (except Peru) and the dudes are 100% tieing their masculinity to voting for a guy. And maybe about 50% of their wives just agree.
hilarious!
Stupid hurts, no matter where you’re from.
Many of these Cubans and Cuban Americans voted Trump because they hate Cuba and communism. Their reward from the Trump administration is to be forcibly brought back to the place they hate.
Many of these Cubans and Cuban Americans voted Trump because they hate Cuba and communism.
It’s always blown my mind that this crowd doesn’t understand what communism is. They just know they hate it.
Many of these folks are people that lost their plantation or were no longer allowed to be landlords because of communism. I feel like they have an inkling what communism is about. If all you are is a parasite, and communism weeds you out, you’re right to dislike communism, and the rest of the world is right to dislike you.
My mother was never a landlord in Cuba and she hates Comunism regardless. She blames the hardships of her youth and current family on the castros, which I agree with, as they let corruption run rampart and imprison/kill their own citizenry. Hell I can’t even post a picture of my cousin after he got out of forced military training (2 years ago) due to fears that the goberment may pay my family a visit.

Same thing I’d say about your side of the argument. But I am the one here with family still in Cuba and they can still tell me their hardships. You will never sway someone onto comunism when that very same word has been used to extract wealth from them for decades.

Are you suggesting that corruption wasn’t an issue under Batista? Why do you blame communism but not the embargo thats designed to cripple an economy and force “hardships” for your mothers “hardships?”
No. I don’t blame comunism, it’s just another lie they got told to be exploited. The US embargo also has fault yes but in the end of the day one Cuban has to make the choice of how what they have gets distributed and I assure you none of the castros are skipping a meal. It’s not all black or white bloody hell.
thanks for elaborating.
I assure you none of the castros are skipping a meal.
No US president has ever missed a meal either. I guess the two systems have a lot in common.
Who you gonna believe? Theory, or your own lyin’ eyes?
Can the people who are deported actually vote?
As far as I know only US citizens can vote and they aren’t (yet) deported in significant numbers.
So it’s the old immigrants who are voting for newer one’s to be deported.
the kicker is that the immigrants were also plantation owners, landlords, the BOURGEOIS that the communists hate they just got mad because thier exploitations got removed.
Or and hear me out here, he is presending them so they can be there to receive more freedom when we invade Cuba.
Americans need liberating you say?
Please.
And face persecution when they return. Their stupidity is boggling.
Good. They whole heatedly supported him.
I think the static is ~70% of Latinos voted for him. But I can guarantee it was closer to 99% of Cubans after listening to the radio in Miami.
It was more like 50+ for latinos.
But the gusanos specifically voted 68% for Trump- Instituto Cervantes at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University:*
origin. In particular, the electoral preferences of the Cuban community are often juxtaposed with those of other Hispanic groups, especially Puerto Ricans. With respect to nationality of place of origin, Cubans and Puerto Ricans represent the two largest subgroups within the state’s Hispanic population. Cubans in Florida number over 1.6 million (7.2% of the state’s population) (U.S. Census Bureau & U.S. Department of Commerce, 2023a) and constitute a key voting bloc for the Republican Party. Puerto Ricans, meanwhile, number over 1.2 million (5.4% of the population) (U.S. Census Bureau & U.S. Department of Commerce, 2023a) and represent the traditional voting base of the Democrats, although the 2024 election results suggest that the party is facing more competition with respect to this group of voters
You do know someone posted a source that showed Latinos voted 68% for trump, right? So I wasn’t puking those numbers “out my ass” as you so eloquently put it.
as you so eloquently put it.
That was the other guy, I posted the 68%comment from A REAL AND REPUTABLE SOURCE: Instituto Cervantes at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University:*
Use that and not “someone posted”, that’s not very convincing in an argument.
Looks like you pulled those numbers out of your ass, and you also misspelled “statistic.”
Shocker I missed a single letter, not once but twice. And didn’t edit it.
They are getting what they voted for. I won’t shed a tear for those who supported the bastard. Those who didn’t be safe.
Will someone think of the golf courses?
You guys know the ones being deported can’t vote, right?
Those being deported have friends and family who can vote and still support Trump.
So more of a “Leopards ate my friends and family’s faces” then. Idk, this doesn’t really bring me much schadenfreude.
south america has the jaguar, so jaguars and PUMA ate thier faces.
Given the number of citizens that are getting attacked I’m going to insert some doubt.
Shhhhh!
I mean, there’s a fair bit of evidence to the contrary
Such as? I sincerely want to know, my assumption was that if a significant number of citizens were being deported, I’d have heard about it. Plenty are being detained, I know.
I mean “significant number” for me is anything above zero. Detention is another issue as well.
Well yeah but a couple people or even hundreds of people isn’t likely going to swing an election.
Throw a dart and you can find a news article of US citizens being detained and denied their due process and others being deported too. If you haven’t seen any at this point you’re willfully ignorant or malicious.
Fuck them.
Polls suggest that most Cuban American registered voters, who tend to be Republican, continue to support Mr. Trump…
Thank god they are getting rid of the Trump voters.
Pick mes gonna be pick mes.
Mmmm, faces with guacamole saus!
