Miami-Dade County commissioner Kevin Marino Cabrera has been nominated by Trump to be the next ambassador to Panama. Born and raised in Miami, Marino Cabrera is the fourth Cuban American picked by Trump to serve in his second administration, joining Sen. Marco Rubio, Mauricio Claver-Carone, and Dr. Peter Lamelas.
President-elect Trump picked Miami-Dade County Commissioner Kevin Marino Cabrera to serve as ambassador to Panama.
Calling the Miami-Dade County Commissioner a “fierce fighter,” Trump said that he would advance the “MAGA agenda” to the Central American country.
“Kevin is a fierce fighter for America First principles. As a Miami-Dade County Commissioner, and Vice Chairman of the International Trade Consortium, he has been instrumental in driving Economic growth, and fostering International partnerships,” Trump wrote in the Wednesday announcement. “In 2020, Kevin did an incredible job as my Florida State Director and, this year, advanced our MAGA Agenda as a Member of the RNC Platform Committee.”
“Few understand Latin American politics as well as Kevin – He will do a FANTASTIC job representing our Nation’s interests in Panama!” he said.
The announcement came after Trump said that Panama was “a Country that is ripping us off on the Panama Canal, far beyond their wildest dreams.”
Growing up among victims of communism, Kevin Marino Cabrera should be well versed in the tactics of corrupt communist dictatorships, something he will deal directly with in Panama with the entrenchment of China in the Panama Canal.
Vayaló! Trump knows how to pick them!
This guy is obviously not Cuban–too white. I’m sure none of the usual suspects are being fooled.

You’re absolutely right Asombra! He doesn’t look like George Lopez or Rita Moreno! And I know what Cubans look like! I used to watch “One Day at a Time!” Quick! Contact John Leguizamo [he’s a spokesman for all of us Latinos and people-of-color], so he can start one of his hysteria campaigns!
I hate to say it but we had 2 Cubans in the Biden Administration ..George Gascon the Liberal DA in LA.. and lets not forget Alejandro Mayorkas…
There are Cubans and then there are Cubanoids. The latter are a different species.
