Rubio Delivers Master Class As He Smokes Reporter for Divisive Question During Briefing in Europe – RedState

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has certainly emerged as one of President Donald Trump’s top Cabinet picks.

He showed us what you can actually do in this position to help advance America’s interests around the world. What a contrast between him and someone like Barack Obama’s former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton.

We reported on Rubio’s astonishing remarks at the Munich Security Conference on the importance of preserving Western civilization.

It was so impressive that even Democratic podcaster Dan Turrentine took note, warning Democrats about the strength of the Republican bench.

Note to all D’s thinking about 28: look @marcorubio remarkable speech today. Some in our party (looking at you @CAgouverneur ) plead for a “return” to the pre-Trump era. This era is dead. Anyone who can articulate a new and coherent vision of leadership to address the new and changing world and its…

Rubio has ruled out running for president in 2028 if Vice President JD Vance runs.

Rubio has just experienced another notable moment during his stay in Europe. He was doing a press briefing with the Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Ficoin Bratislava. Rubio smoked a reporter and called him out for asking a question, trying to stoke division in Venezuela.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Marco Rubio just punched a Fake News reporter trying to create a divide between the Slovak Prime Minister and Rubio while they were both at the podium. Master class.

“You asked him a question to see if you could turn him against us,” Rubio observed. He not only answered the question, but also mentioned the reason for this answer, and he didn’t understand it.

“A lot of countries didn’t like what we did in Venezuela! That’s OK. It was in our national interest. I’m sure he’ll do something one day that we don’t like, and we’ll say, ‘Hey, we didn’t like that you did that.’ So what? This does not mean that we will not be friends, partners or that we will not be able to cooperate. »

Rubio stressed that it was a success and, moreover, “It was necessary, because this guy was a narcoterrorist.”

“I can tell you that the situation in Venezuela is much better than six weeks ago,” he concluded, while recognizing that there was still much to do.

Rubio is right. OhOur interests in the hemisphere are much more secure, not to mention the interests of those who wish us harm have been hit hard by this decision.
