MakeIt Whatever
MakeIt That’s not his dad.
MakeIt I didn't know Bezos was of Cuban descent.
MakeIt Republicans are the same ppl that say pick yourself up by your bootstraps.....
MakeIt Yet if he’d come from Central America today he’d be caged like a dog in trump’s immigrant detention camps. Guess timing is everything.
MakeIt Great to know the story of Jeff’s dad. Miguel’s parents did the right and selfless thing in sending him away. Those that remained behind have lived and died through the hell that was Castro’s government.
MakeIt What a story
MakeIt That explains a lot.....
MakeIt I just hate Jeff Bezos. Im sure his grandpappy was a good man. But Jeff, nah
MakeIt and he came here legally. He wasn't an illegal alien !!!
MakeIt 😊
MakeIt Ironically Bozo's father fled the Cuban Leftist that his son supports via the DNC.
MakeIt what's up old man?
MakeIt Grit does not exist in today's society. It i as if striving for excellence is a bad thing. Instead everyhing should be made easy to accomplish. But even that will never guarantee equal results.
MakeIt Incredible story. Even more incredible is that, after his father escaped from leftish communist country, and lost everything, Bezos been the wealthiest man alive, runs influencer leftish media outlet wapo supporting communists. This irony doesn’t have explanation. insane

MakeIt Nice! Immigrants do make a difference. Too bad Trump’s too racist & bigoted to realize it. Until he looks at Melania. But that’s rare.
MakeIt That’s good Merit based immigration example! Potential.
