Sandro Castro, grandson of the late dictator Fidel Castro, once again posted another outrageous message on social media, this time in support of migrants and addressed to U.S. President Donald Trump.
“President Donald Trump, not even the Cristach has any effect on you anymore. Don't view immigrants as enemies. Your nation was built by immigrants. Not everyone is a criminal; they earn their money honestly and help strengthen your country's economy. Give immigrants opportunities and life, because in the end, Homeland is Humanity. A moment of silence for all those protests that took place,” he said in another one of his cringe videos.
This new outburst on social media from the unstable grandson of the Castro clan was filmed from an empty pool in the ruins of the Ríomar building in Playa.
In addition to the usual acolytes, silently sporting dark glasses, a few Cuban flags are added to the aesthetic of this new video by the owner of the EFE bar. Sandro, with his shirt unbuttoned, raises them, allowing the phrase “Strength, Latin America” painted in red to be read across his chest.
After his speech and his plea for silence, the grandson ends up on his knees with a piercing cry of anguish.
The video tags the official accounts of Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar, as well as those of the channels Univisión and Telemundo, and the government of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo.
The grandson who plays at ridiculing the government
Many Cubans see Sandro Castro as an extravagant figure, a "clown," but the young man has begun to attract attention for subtly introducing critical remarks about the regime in his posts, and there are plenty of followers who jokingly suggest his candidacy for "president of Cuba."
Recently, it made the news for liking a comment on Instagram that mocked the ruler Miguel Díaz-Canel, a gesture that his followers interpreted as a sign of political disapproval from Sandro regarding the current government.
Others of his recent videos celebrated Father's Day, featuring posts that blended his already distinctive eccentric style with messages of supposed social reflection.
In an Instagram story, Sandro congratulated Cuban parents with an unusual statement. “I used to live inside an egg. I was a little spermatozoon and then this immense creature grew,” he said, celebrating himself.
In the video, he made a unique invitation: "Happy Father's Day to those in this country, this planet, and those in the beyond. All the puretanos, please take a Cristach in my honor and smoke a tabacach," he expressed.
