    Nayib Bukele, presidente de El Salvador, quizá haya encontrado la mejor forma de describir el nuevo enfoque del secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, respecto a los regímenes dictatoriales: un emoji de risa.

Marco Rubio, a proud son of Cuban immigrants, used to oppose dictators. Who is this man who laughs with El Salvador's authoritarian ruler and boasts about revoking visas? Even Cuba experts don't recognize it's the same guy. My column. Gift link. https://t.co/o69ZsrhZvx @opinion
