He comes from a Cuban family. Cuban's in southern Florida vote Republican for the most part.
That's why Democrat leaders deported him. He wouldn't have been a reliable vote and it sent a message for other Cubans to not come to Florida.
This such tripe.
The kid's dad was still alive, in Cuba. He had to go back.
It should never have become the shitshow that it did, and the photo was just stupid.

No he didn't. There was a USSR prof who got permission to teach college in the US for one year. He brought his son. The Russians kept his wife and younger child hostage to ensure his return.
After the year was over the Prof prepared to leave and the 9 y.o. son said he wanted to stay and asked for asylum.
The son won and is still living in America and dad left without him.
