Port hypocrisy
Gov. Rick Scott has threatened to cut off state funding to any shipping port that enters into an agreement with the communist-ruled island of Cuba, but he doesn’t seem to mind ships entering Florida’s ports filled with goods from communist China or Vietnam.
Why the double standard? Oh, wait, never mind, it’s because he’s pandering to Cuban-American voters when he runs for Senate.
Scott is just another Republican hypocrite trying to appease President Trump.
