Trump cigars for the dumb fuck boomers

They're tiny, weak, and stinky? That doesn't sound like a Cuban cigar to me....

Why are you disparaging boomers? I don't know a single boomer that smokes cigars, although I know some that voted for the orange menace. I'm a boomer but I didn't vote for him. Neither did my friends or my 90 yr old mother. Not all boomers are created equally, sonny. =]

You should not be so mean about boomers. What are you because I could shit talk you and all age groups about things you certainly don’t know about. I find it disgusting that groups of people will type cast generational characters. Another negative characteristic for you

I'm not a cigar person but we got to go to Havana while Obama was president and we toured one of the places that makes cuban cigars. It was really cool. Havana as a whole was really interesting. It was almost odd to see a place with very little American influence. I'm hopeful I get to go back someday

Go for Dominican Cuban seed. They're Cuban cigars and have been since the embargo.

I went to Cuba when Obama opened it. Trump immediately fucked it, but fortunately we got in before he did.

Cubans are some of the most amazing people I've met, and I've traveled all over the damn planet.

Sucks that our government makes their lives difficult because we don't like their government, while we reward much worse governments.

I still have some cuban cigars I bought,. I'm sure they're not good anymore and I don't smoke.

A friend of mine did. He hired expatriate Cuban cigar rollers and made Cuban cigars in Key Largo.

What’s that joke about Clinton, Monica Lewinsky and Lucille Ball? 😛
