Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwaySen. John Kennedy (R-La.) caused irony meters to explode on Wednesday after critics suggested his swipe at Cuba’s leadership could just as easily apply to Donald Trump’s White House.
Kennedy, appearing on Fox News after federal prosecutors leveled charges against former Cuban President Raúl Castro over a 1996 downing of civilian planes, described Raúl’s brother, the late Cuban President Fidel Castro, as “evil” but “pretty smart.”
He then turned his fire on the island’s current leaders, calling them “asshats,” as the Trump administration ramps up its efforts to unseat the communist government.
“They are like three-wheeled shopping carts,” Kennedy said.
Senator Kennedy on Cuba: They are just incompetent. All they know how to do is oppress people. They take all their money and they give it to the military and the police and themselves, and to hell with the good people. pic.twitter.com/7gfeWPeNVo

“And that’s not a model for success, and they’re gone and they just don’t know it yet,” he added, suggesting regime change was imminent.
Critics on social media quickly pointed out the irony, arguing Kennedy’s description could just as easily be read as a critique of the current U.S. leadership under Donald Trump.
Kennedy just talked himself into a corner!
Trump and friends do the exact same thing!
Let’s see senator….. this sounds like someone who’s in office right now that’s doing the exact same thing. The sad thing is you have the balls to do it for Castro but when it’s trump doing it you just kiss his ass and let him do it
— Clea-ri-on (@ClearionB) May 20, 2026Sounds like what Trump is doing right now. They take all the money and we get war and higher prices.
— Marcia (@Marcia74192580) May 20, 2026Kennedy: "They take all their money and they give it to the military and the police and themselves." Replace police with ICE and it sounds exactly like the Trump administration.
— dks1978 (@danaski56182362) May 20, 2026Gosh, do they give all their taxpayers' money to fund a ballroom, arch, deflecting pool, etc.?
— gingervytus👁️🇺🇦 (@GingerSlapp) May 20, 2026So, the Senator is complaining about Cuba doing exactly what Trump and his minions are doing. But with Cuba, it’s bad and with Trump, it’s good? Can’t these people hear themselves?
— Sherry Knowlton (@KnowltonSBooks) May 21, 2026I’m sorry, is he referring to Cuba or the United States because it wasn’t entirely clear
— Ludwig Von Hayek (@LudwigHayek) May 21, 2026Wow he just described the US government.
— BPS 🌐 Pro (@BPSPro) May 20, 2026So, it’s just like the United States. Got it.
— David Phillips (@phillipsreframe) May 21, 2026Is Kennedy describing his own party?
— Pilchuck11 (@pilchuck11) May 21, 2026JFC- he’s talking about the US
— Disillusioned Vet (@sueispissed) May 20, 2026That’s sounds eerily like the Trump administration.
— Eve (@elopezsj) May 20, 2026Sound's like what Trump is doing here in America.
— Diane McKenna (@DianeMcKenna22) May 20, 2026Is he talking about here or Cuba?
— PatriotTakes 🇺🇸 (@patriottakes) May 20, 2026Once again, idiot US "official" accusing another nation of doing precisely what the US does.
Remember Hegseth criticizing Iran for prioritizing military spending over the well-being of its citizens?
Sounds like a nightmare. I mean can you imagine

That’s an apt description of the current United States Administration Senator
