His first thought when hearing the news was of all the people in his life who had to live under Castro’s rule and how they didn’t get to be here to see it. Secondly, he thought about how “the dictator is dead but the dictatorship isn’t.”
Rubio spoke very passionately in a new video about his frank thoughts on the passing of Castro and pointed out that, no matter what his personal feelings are, ultimately, “Right now, he’s facing his maker.”
