The general election against Trump.

Cuban Americans are one of the most anti communist groups in America. Bernie Sanders had praised communist Cuba back in the 1980's.

Bernie Sanders praised communist Cuba and the Soviet Union in the 1980s

Not only are there Cuban American groups now, there are Venezuelan American groups in Florida.

Will the Cuban Americans forgive him? Can he win Florida without them?

Will losing Florida lose the general election?

Depends if enough older Cuban's have died off when the 2020 election rolls around

Young Cubans are more liberal
 
Unfortuneately, no.

Florida is red and full of crazy.
 
On the other hand, there's those over one million convicted felons who have served their time who can now vote...

Failing to support a full on socialist (“Democratic Socialist” is just a BS way to make it more palatable) is far from crazy.

There are 16 million possible voters.

Most of the 1 million felons will not vote.

Bernie’s Communist vision will not sell well anywhere except NY and CA.

Did you see how close the Governors race was in 2018 in Fl?

That's because the republican candidate said something border line racist.

But then the democrat candidate was brought up on corruption charges.

Maybe 5% of felons will vote, probably less.

Lets not forget the ever increasing socialist Puerto Rican's
 
Bubbas and Jim Bobs in the north part of the state: Check.
Conservative old fart retirees in the middle part of the state: Check
Cubans in the Southern part of the state: Check

Does it need to be explained?

Can? Yes. Bernie has a slight edge in head-to-head polling in that state (a microscopic .3 points to be exact), and that edge is very much inside the margin of error.
