And it has VERY little to do with what is going on in Cuba.
No matter the political party affiliation, who takes what side depends on how the issue can be milked for campaign contributions.
The whole "issue" of Cuba and Cuba sanctions is nothing more than a false "issue" created and maintained for political campaign contribution reasons.
For both sides.
Killing the US sanctions on Cuba would be killing off a campaign cash cow - for both sides.
No "issue" = no money.
No Cuba sanctions = no issue.
Status quo rules the day. It is the American way.
