    Many have commented on Democratic losses in South Florida and with Latinos across the country. As the Congresswoman from #FL26 who lost her seat, and the first South American immigrant ever elected to Congress... Let me set the record straight. (1/8)

        Many latinos in Miami came to the US because the dictatorships they liked were replaced by democracies. But she is right about the diversity.

        Let's be a little more historically precise. Many latinos in Miami were the disconnected and unsuccessful elites in their original countries. Out of lack of responsibility, they were not able to properly lead and had to flet because they were taken down by their own incompetence.

        What exactly is her point? Because I read this and it is basically blaming socialism, by constantly saying...."its not just socialism" but then never getting to the bottom of what else it might be.

        Almost no one is talking about this part of what she said: "There were many factors: ... an electorate desperate to re-open, wracked with fear over the economic consequences." People just need to admit that Covid may have been a net-positive issue for Trump not Biden.
