Democrats flipped both chambers of Congress on Tuesday, delivering a stunning rebuke to Donald Trump and opening the possibility for a showdown over his administration’s economic war on Cuba.
With their new majorities and control over congressional committees, Democrats could pursue legislation ending Trump’s oil blockade, prohibit funding for unauthorized military operations and advance measures to ease or repeal economic sanctions.
The election results also cast doubt on the conventional wisdom about the political risks of opposing the embargo, including in Florida, where Cuba hardliners have long wielded enormous influence.
That’s a good exercise in critical thinking, here’s my thesis: They wouldn’t.
I love thinking.
It’s possible they could if they tried. But they won’t try.
Good joke
Down voted because we know the answer is no. Dems and Republicans are thr same in foreign policies
