“I think he did it to provoke you to ask me and others and get outraged by it.”

Senator, even if this nonsense was true, aren’t you tired of being played for a fool by the alleged leader of the free world?

We are.

Further proof that Pres. Candidate (circa 2015) Rubio is STILL not ready for prime time, even as a Senator. Not informed. Not logical. Not smart. An empty suit with a lot of personal debt paid off by monied interests.

Marco’s attempt at gaslighting is so pathetic, pretty much like when he tried to do the “you know what they say about guys with small hands” routine back in the 2016 campaign. Stick to tweeting bible verses.

“He’s pretty good at getting everybody fired up and he’s been doing that for a while and the media responded right on task.”

Not everyone - some members of congress normalize his behavior.

Oh, FFS!! Nixon was very intelligent but his innate personal behavior was self destructive. Trump is stupid and his innate personal behavior is self destructive.

Oh, ok.

Well… I guess that’s progress over just parroting the Trump line.

Translation: I’m waiting to see just how bad this gets before I decide whether to jump on board.
