Watch: De Blasio Quotes Communist Terrorist, Democrats Demand Apology
Democrat presidential candidate Bill de Blasio quoted communist terrorist Che Guevara on Thursday while speaking during a union rally at Miami International Airport, which prompted Democrats to demand that he apologize.
De Blasio “dropped Che’s most famous quote as he joined workers who walked off the job in protest of poor conditions and compensation,” the Miami Herald reported. “Before giving up the microphone to the next speaker, de Blasio blurted a quote from one of the most hated historical figures throughout Miami: ‘Hasta la victoria, siempre.'”
“The phrase — which translates roughly to ‘Ever on to victory!’ — was a mantra for Guevara, who became one of Fidel Castro’s top lieutenants,” the Herald added. “Raul Castro uttered the quote on Cuban television when he announced to the world that his older brother had died.” . . .

Democrat Florida State Senator José Javier Rodríguez, whose district includes Little Havana, demanded that De Blasio apologize for quoting communist terrorist Che Guevara.
Neither @Annette_Taddeo nor I were present when @BilldeBlasio spoke, didn't speak w him & only learn of this now. Quoting a murderer responsible for death & oppression in communist Cuba and throughout Latin America is not acceptable. Please apologize. Many on strike are Cuban btw https://t.co/sqxdkHQizV
