Sen. Marco Rubio Marco RubioRubio defends Trump: 'This whole flip flop thing is a political thing' Rubio: Shutdown would have 'catastrophic impact' on global affairs Sunday shows preview: Trump stares down 100-day mark MORE (R-Fla.) on Sunday said a shutdown of the United States government would have a “catastrophic impact” on global affairs.
“The last thing we can afford is to send a message to the world that the United States government, by the way, is only partially functioning,” Rubio told CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“I mean, that would just have catastrophic impact, in my view, or certainly very destabilizing, I should say, impact on global affairs. And so we should keep that in mind going into this week.”

Rubio once again puts his cowardliness on display.
Grow up, Rubio....
Essential elements if the givernment would continue, whic is probably 96% of the givernment as they define it...
bump
Marco, hold faithfully to your principles....they’re all you have.
#1. Government doesn’t shut down. They continue to operate what they call “essential” services.
#2. Its wonderful political theater. It gives us the chance to show just how much of government is not essential.
Your worried about $1.6 billion out of $3500 billion spending. Pecker comparisons are more important than national security I guess.
Marco was for legislative general amnesty for illegals.
If Marco doesn’t like a shutdown over the wall, do it.
Then Little Marco, I suggest you and the globalist senators give
Trump his border wall money.
Salt water wetback......I LIKE IT!!!!
Sounds like the Saudis are threatening to withhold his check........
Marco Rubio is such an ass, as in Democrat donkey. He’s a big government shill, hiding behind a mask of conservative blather.
It’s hard to believe he got away with the deception for as long as he did.
What a moronic dildo !
Didn’t read the article, but the headlines “SHUTDOWN”, the government is planning a shutdown? We get this shutdown garbage every few months for one reason or the other, and the shutdown screamers keep receiving their salaries and goodies during the shutdown just the same. It’s a threat to scare the “masses” by a group of our elected who don’t give a feather for the people who’ve elected them. Get rid of the shutdown group. We keep on working and they keep taking vacations. (they work only about 160 days a year, how many days do YOU work a year.............for how much?)
