RE: Promise Rubio enough money and you can buy the exact same “package” from him.

Can you show me the precedent for that where he compromised his stance for money?

OK, I’ll grant you immigration (which I’m not even sure is about money). What about the other issues?

We'll get the Rubio problem you already mentioned out of the way: Mark Rubio and Marco Zuckerberg. Billionaire boy Zuckerberg says jump. Rubio is in the air, doesn't even bother to ask how high.

Marco already in the pocket of Big Sugar/(in other words, pay him enough money and he'll sell America out again) the precedence where Marco compromises his stance for money, once again.

I don't necessarily agree with all of the premises mentioned by the authors of these articles, but they are clear on one thing, Marco has no problem voting the way that best lines his pockets. Once you give up the idea that the nation of your birth has sovereign laws, it is easy to put your principles up for sale. Whether those principles are the nation's laws themselves or anything else you can think of, makes no real difference. Marco's principles left him long ago with his increasing appetite for more and more money.

Marco loves money

Marco's shady Real Estate dealings: Marco knows how to use his crony friends.

Pertinent parts -

"Real estate records show the Rubios made a 10 percent down payment to buy that $550,000 house. He says he paid cash for upgrades to the home before construction finished.

A little more than a month after the Rubios closed on the house in December 2005, a bank owned by one of his political supporters appraised the house at $735,000 and gave Rubio a $135,000 home equity loan. Rubio has said the add-ons to the house, plus Florida's heated real estate market, justified the appraisal."

The rest here:

(We don't have to go into his real estate and housemate David Rivera's problems.)

Anyone who wants Marco Rubio to support their cause had better have a billion dollars laying around somewhere. We the people are broke. But Marco can always rely on his crony friends.

Have fun reading.
