Rubio: Trump's foreign policy answers 'very concerning'
The Hill ^ | 9/4/15 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 09/04/2015 11:21:30 AM PDT by jimbo123

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) is questioning Donald Trump's foreign policy chops after the GOP presidential front-runner appeared to stumble in a recent interview.

“If you don’t know the answer to these questions, then you are not going to be able to serve as commander in chief,” Rubio said during a stop in San Juan, Puerto Rico, according to CNN.

“This should be part of the reason why you are running, because you understand the threats that the world is facing, you have deep understanding and you understand what to do about it,” he said without naming Trump. “And if someone doesn’t, I think it is very concerning,” added Rubio, himself a 2016 candidate for president.

Rubio’s remarks follow an uncomfortable exchange between Trump and radio host Hugh Hewitt over international affairs earlier this week.

No offense Marco, but how many of those answers did you actually know? And your comment? “If you don’t know the answer to these questions, then you are not going to be able to serve as commander in chief,”

I have to ask where have you been for the last seven years?

Rubio is a invade, invite the world type of guy. A McCain clone with a accent when needed.

I think a guy who can manage his way to $10 billion in net worth can figure a few things out. Not knowing the name of every cockroach in the middle east doesn't concern me.

There is only one thing Trump needs to know: how to beat them.

Rubio is indeed a beta male... but even a broken clock is right twice a day. Trump, or at least the reality character he is playing, is an alpha male. Hitler, Attila, Caesar, and Henry VIII were also strong alpha males. Trump is not conservative and other than a few issues that he has no real history of championing before June 2015.

Hugh lost his drive time radio slot (3-6p) here in LA and then started saying we should build the fence, but in his heart, he’s always been an open borders whore .

He isn’t worth $10 B. Not even close. He is lucky if he is worth what he inherited, adjusted for inflation.

When Hewitt read out those Arabic names and asked “Do you know who they are?”, Trump should have just responded with “Obama’s buddies?”

... cuz he wouldn’t have been too far off the mark

Trump admitted he didn’t know all the Moslem factions killing each other. He said he’d get people who did and delegate to them.

He will have 2+ months after he is elected-—13 MONTHS FROM NOW— to learn everything he needs to know.

Reagans answer to that was, it doesn’t matter if I know their names, they need to know mine.

That’s the answer they should give.
