Rubio warns against Trump hijacking far right
Washington Post ^ | March 13, 2016 | AP

GOP presidential hopeful Marco Rubio says he must win his home state of Florida in Tuesday’s primary to keep the conservative movement from getting “hijacked” by front-runner Donald Trump.

Using a bullhorn, Rubio said, “We must send a message to the country that we are not going to allow the conservative movement and the Republican Party to get hijacked by someone who is neither a Republican nor a conservative.”

He invoked the memory of the late President Ronald Reagan, saying he acknowledged the country’s fears and frustration in 1980 but “didn’t exploit them.”

Rubio is trailing Trump in Florida polling.

Well, Trump is a Republican and wants to help the country, unlike some politicians, who don't even want to secure our borders.

Couldn’t imagine a guy like Rubio on my side.

I guess that doesn’t bother other folks.

Bullhorn?

That's all the sound you need when 30 people show up to your rally.

The Cheap Labor Express hijacked the Republican Party years ago and some of the citizens are just waking up to that fact.

Trump is an attempt to wrestle contol of the party from the globalists who are trying to deny the citizens the ability to keep the rule of law and their country.

Trump isn’t even far right. He’s presenting himself as a pragmatic deal maker. And Republicans are interested.

Rubio calls for "hijacking" in new escalation of dangerous rhetoric on the campaign trail!

So,[Rubio:] clueless, “Lie in the Soul”, or student of Joseph Goebbels?
