Fidel Castro’s recent death evoked conflicting assessments of his legacy from world leaders, but college students are no more prepared than prime ministers to justify their support for the Cuban dictator.

A number of students at American University acknowledged the brutality of Castro's regime, but insisted that he was a better leader than Trump because he did "good things" for the Cuban people.

College students are such elitist snobs.   They pay lip service to poor people, but not to the choices that poor people make at the voting booth.

According to a study I read this weekend,  the counties that voted for Clinton generated 65% of the nation's GDP,  while the counties that voted for Trump generated 35%.  Clearly, this was a poor peoples' revolution, but not of the romantic, imposed-by-force variety championed by those drunk on Castro.   No, Trump was chosen by poor people themselves - just not the right sort of poor people favored by pampered, sheltered college students.
