This comment comes from "Little Marco" today, on the now widely reported ties between Donald Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Russia.
Either the bubble in which Marco Rubio resides is extremely thick, Rubio is himself extremely thick, or he's shameless, doesn't care, and will say anything and do anything to win. I personally think all of the above apply.
But no matter how you look at it, this statement alone should disqualify Rubio from public office, especially when you consider the committees he currently sits on, including the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, just to name two.
Rubio's also a member of the Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, Innovation, and the Internet, but I suppose he's also "not aware" that Trump invited Russia to hack into Hillary Clinton's emails, and that there's growing evidence that Russia has indeed hacked into and exposed the personal information of many Democrats in Congress.
Given that he sits on these committees, it's Rubio's job to be more than just "aware" of things like this. But even if he didn't, at the very least, it hardly takes a genius to Google "Paul Manafort" and "Russia" to discover an endless supply of those links between Trump's staff and Russia.
As we all know, Rubio hates his job and rarely shows up for it, just two more reasons why running for it all over again makes no sense, except for the fact that he wants the title when he takes another run for the Presidency, another office he's woefully unqualified for, especially if he plays dumb or ignores the fact that Russia and Putin may be putting their thumbs on the scale against Hillary Clinton in favor of Trump while interfering in our elections.
But Rubio has a pattern of playing dumb and flip-flopping if it's to his advantage politically, and he's shameless about doing so.
Here's just another example, which also involves Donald Trump:
That was a tweet from March 1, 2016, back when Rubio was waffling between ignoring Trump, making fun of him, supporting him, then not supporting him, before fully supporting him after Rubio lost in the primaries.
If you go the the above March 1 tweet of Rubio's, which is still there, and you click on the link, this is what you'll see when you try to find out why Rubio thinks Trump is dangerous:
Oops. I guess Rubio is no longer "aware" that Trump is a dangerous man who is unqualified to be President.
Funny how that works.
