Marco Rubio's campaign office released Saturday new details on some of the personal charges the 2016 GOP presidential candidate made using an American Express card issued by the Republican Party of Florida.
New statements from 2005 to 2006 show Mr. Rubio used the credit card to pay for a portion of a trip to Las Vegas, auto repairs, tiling and charges at a children's sports activity center.

This is such a nothing burger. Remember when the GOP bought Sarah some new outfits? I’d rather talk about Rubio selling us out to Big Amnesty.
If Rubio paid AMEX directly for the charges, I don’t see this causing him a problem.
Rubio is a weasel but he says the card was not , repeat,not issued by the Republican Party of Florida but was actually applied for and granted under his own credit line with the Florida Republican Party listed on the card.I try not to listen to what the twerp says but even with my casual observations on television I’ve seen him make those exact statements at least twice. Heck, I applied for an American Express card for my business.It does not have my name on it but it has my business name on it but I am personally responsible for payment.
“If Rubio paid AMEX directly for the charges, I donât see this causing him a problem.”
This is just more innuendo and idiocy.
There are real reasons not to support Rubio.
Did he pay it back?
Clinton was infamous for using Arkansas Troopers to facilitate trysts. On regular and overtime pay.
I don’t understand why he didn’t just get his own card. Especially being a politician, he should know it could come back to haunt him.
We can now add TPP to the list of why Rubio needs to go.
Rubio is already dead to me, so none of this matters.
However, if he wants to answer, one word will suffice: Hillary.
There is no evidence that he paid it back - I doubt that he did since the account was hit with late charges, overfees, etc. Some of you need to get your heads out of your butts. He is economically illiterate.
He probably didn’t get his own card because he is a poor credit risk. So, that’s probably why he used the GOP card for personal expenses. He’s also a poor presidential risk.
I didn’t know Rubio was for TTP. Do you have a link discussing Rubio and TTP? I want to forward to a proRubio neighbor. Thanks.
Obama put $10,000,000,000,000 on the American Taxpayer Card and he didn’t pay back a dime.
Why is this a story again? Was it a Government Credit Card, the answer is no.
Not a Rubio Fan by a longshot, but after they went after him for buying that Yacht (LOL), this doesn’t surprise me.
You probably are right. Or Rubio’s cards were maxed out and he was living above his income and could not afford any unexpected expense so he charged it on the GOP card. It was totally inappropriate any way you look at it.
It’s okay. He donated everything to illegals for their votes!
What ever happened to the avoidance of even the appearance of impropriety?
Now now.
He had to save up money to buy that boat. The one the media was hounding him about several months ago.
I agree. At best, M. Rubio is stupid. What has he accomplished? He did not even earn his pay as Senator. He is not fit to be president.
If this takes Amnesty Boy out, pile on as much as you please
