Thanks for helping.

          The tensor product of two $ntimes n$ matrices $A,B$ is
          $$Aotimes B = left(begin{array}{ccc} a_{11}B & ldots& a_{1n}B\
          vdots & ldots & vdots\
          a_{n1}B & ldots & a_{nn} B
          end{array}right).$$

          So if $A,B$ are column stochastic, then so is $Aotimes B$. Just check the $j$-th column of the block matrix $Aotimes B$ and take inside the block matrix the $k$-th column of $B$:
          $$a_{1j}[b_{1k}+ldots+b_{nk}] + ldots + a_{nj}[b_{1k}+ldots+b_{nk}] = a_{1j}+ldots+a_{nj} = 1.$$
          Similar for the rows.
