Rubio’s been warming up to Trump in the last couple days. I wonder what his price is... those delegates would be the icing on the cake.

“I wonder what his price is”

Rubio is in a strange position for a candidate who was supposed to be the future of the Republican Party. He gave away his Senate seat before the primaries. He has burned many bridges here in Florida. When Trump said he couldn’t be elected dog-catcher, he was actually quoting a high ranking Florida GOP official.

If he throws in with Cruz and it blows up, he has no political future; he will be a politician without a home state. The 1 million Trump voters in Florida will make sure of that.

But if he sides with Trump, he could resurrect himself. He did get 640,000 votes in FL, And the Trump voters will mostly embrace him. Rubio as VP on the ticket would lock in Florida’s 29 electoral votes. It would also build a bridge to the GOP national support that Trump will need to fight the Clinton machine.
