President Obama is making the case that Republican candidates like Marco Rubio are responsible for Donald Trump. He is intimating that they should not be rewarded with reelection.
President Obama calls out Marco Rubio
President Obama called our Marco Rubio with his own words when Rubio slammed Donald Trump back in the Republican Primaries. It was very effective.
“I agree with the U.S. Senator, a Republican, who a while back said that we can’t afford to give the nuclear codes of the United States to an erratic individual,” Obama said. “By the way, you know who said that? Marco Rubio. He also called Donald Trump a dangerous con artist who has spent his career sticking it to working people. Now that begs the question since we are in Florida; Why does Marco Rubio still plan to vote for Donald Trump? Why is he supporting Donald Trump? I know a lot of Republican voters, just ordinary folks, your neighbors, your friends, most of them don’t think the way Trump does. And there are legitimate differences between the parties. But there has to be a point where you stand for something more than just party, or more than just your own career.”
The President then pointed out that Right Wing media and complacent Republican politicians that refused to call out Republicans as they entered their fact free zone were complicit. That is the message that must be relayed to Americans. They cannot reward enablers with their vote.
