“He listened to Chuck Schumer and the media”
No, he listened to his boss, Cesar Conda, who picked Rubio when he was still in Florida to push AMENSTY, long before Rubio met Schumer.
People like Conda don’t get ‘hired’ to be a chief of staff for a lowly state rep like Rubio...they picked Rubio for their Trojan Horse. Conda also brought Paul Ryan into DC politics. The open border/bad trade cartel owns them both.
WHO is Cesar Conda? Until you know, you don’t know Rubio.

Marco Rubio was the 2016 Republican version of John Edwards -- just an oily prima-donna who came across as a complete phony.
When someone takes you to the dance, and you stab them in the back, don’t expect them to be eager to crawl in bed with you.
Because he looks like a 20 year old with no gravitas?
Gang of 8.
He was DOA from day one.
Just think ‘K St.’
That was indeed strange. Even more so was they let him get away with it. Thankfully the voters didn’t in 6 contests. Anyone else having a disaster of a night like Cruz did would be laughed out of the primary. Cruz has been treated with kid gloves this whole primary. Disgusting.
Wow Auntie B...Conda is SCUM of the first order...worked for Cheney, Soros, Gingrich...just Wow!
The author never even mentioned Rubio’s treason on Amnesty, his membership in the Gang of Eight, or the sharp about face from Candidate Rubio’s opposition to Amnesty to Senator Rubio’s support. If Rubio had kept his word on that one issue (and if he had not malfunctioned on his memorized script, malfunctioned on his memorized script, malfunctioned on his memorized script, malfunctioned on his memorized script), he would likely be the nominee. Those in the establishment class pretend that isn’t even a consideration, but they know better.
A nonsensical list of qualifications centered around political coorectness and superficial aspects, much like Obama. Probably the least-qualified and least-vetted candidate ever to have national party support. Thin resume, no track record, but suited to play the role of splitting the non-Jeb vote.
Why did Rubio strike out? There’s a very simple 3-word answer:
Gang of Eight.
Not good enough for you, then here’s another:
He’s a sell-out.
He had a bright future, until he f’d it up with that one idiotic decision. He ought to find the aide that suggested that and punch him in the mouth. Now, at best, he’ll be a high-priced lobbyist who, in 10 years, no one will remember or give a damn about.
“Christ destroyed him”
“Wow Auntie B...Conda is SCUM of the first order...worked for Cheney, Soros, Gingrich...just Wow!”
Trump worked with Soros and Gingrich is on Trump’s team now
Yup. Pulled the pin on the grenade the day he signed-on to the Gang of Eight.
Writer is very biased. My take :
- Short height (5.8”)
- Looks immature, very boyish
- nervous
- talks with 100m/m speed
- repetitive
- gang of 8
- over-rehearsed
- making fun of a successful business was a foolish idea, which took him down.
- corrupt
- he was chasing money
Conservative “bone fides” on low taxes and family values
What have “conservatives” done for family values? Nothing but flap their lips. ‘Low Taxes’, yeah on the wealthy.
Yep.
No matter how many rocket scientist talking heads come up with different explanations.
There really is one cause and one cause only why his candidacy was still born.
Schumer was brilliant. He discovered the Rube could be sucked in to betraying his constituents and, in the role of virtuosity violinist, played the Rube like a fine violin. Not only did Schumer get the Rube to be the spokesman for the Gang of Eight, he also managed to destroy one of our best young potential leaders.
It was amnesty and gang of eight.
Once doomed in Florida, he was doomed elsewhere.
Middle Clas Americans are not going to settle for being permanent lower class. No matter how much doctrinaire conservatism gets thrown at us by our supposed purist betters.
