"Trumpy, you got some 'splainin' a-do!"

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Famed Nixon and Reagan supporter and Cuban nobility exile Desi Arnaz. His pastimes included drinking and prostitutes. He'd be a trump man.

Edit: fun fact, his family went into exile not with the Cuban revolution with Castro, but the one that put Batista in power. His father was part of the corrupt Machado government. People were not happy with the aristocrats being fat and happy during the depression. He liked to portray himself as a rags to riches story but curiously also went to one of the most elite private Catholic high schools in the states with Al Capone's son in the middle of the depression. Give me a break.
