Hmm. Pompeo is a smug sponsor of REAL terrorism. Haven't heard much about Cuban 'terrorism' lately. I guess Canadian tourists won't need to worry about seeing Pompeo's fat ass at the resort buffet.

that what the Cuban Ppl get for voting for Trump 🤣

That'll b overturned on 8 days...petulant trump 🤦🏻‍♂️

Now America is equally threat to the world as China

We will not tolerate SecPompeo destroying allies or ginning up wars to re-make world in his perverted faje religion- he is no Christian- he is an end of the world destroyer. We will not have this RepJerryNadler SpeakerPelosi Demand he resign now! Is SenatorCollins in on plot?

What a shame!

Mike Pompeo is a state sponsor of terrorism

Pompeo is feathering his nest for a 2014 run. All his international inanity will simply be deep-sixed by the new State Department in about a minute.

Cuba? The White House is currently sponsoring more terrorism than a Caribbean island stuck in a time warp because of decades long crushing sanctions.

There is zero basis in reality for this declaration. Pompeo is just poisoning the well for the Biden Administration to inherit and clean up.

Pot calling the kettle.... That's like when all the traitortrumpsters were calling traitor lyndsey a traitor...

After the Cubans helped him win Florida.

Wreaking Ball 45... Making Enemies everywhere he goes...

BREAKING: Trump Admin officially declares SenTedCruz is a terrorist. zodiac

how about naming the criminal racist of the gop a terrorist state

Most americans thinking Cuba are there friends lol!!! 'They know a lot about sonic weapons that knock out your diplomates, Just saying '

The best way to deal with communist Cuba is to open trade with them and flood the island with American money, products, and tourism. Capitalism defeats communism in the marketplace, every time.

Just reverse it.

The White House should be designated a sponsor of terrorism.

The Trump administration is a state sponsor of terrorism.

If anyone knows about terrorism, Trump does

Don’t care
