Rubio Defends FBI on Trump Probe — They Were Investigating ‘Suspicious’ Individuals
breitbart ^ | PAM KEY

Posted on 05/27/2018 9:08:36 AM PDT by davikkm

Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Sen Marco Rubio (R-FL) defended the FBI’s action during the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump by saying they were investigating individuals with suspicious histories connected to Russia.

Rubio said, “As far as what I have seen to date, it appears that there was an investigation not of the campaign but of certain individuals who have a history that we should be suspicious of that predate the presidential campaign of 2015, 2016.”

He continued, “When individuals like that are in the orbit of a major political campaign in America, the FBI, who is in charge of counterintelligence investigations, should look at people like that. But they’re not investigating the campaign. They’re investigating those people.”

Where Rubio is lying, is the FBI should have immediately informed Donald Trump that bad actors were infiltrating his campaign.
Of course that was not done, since they had no intention of protecting Donald Trump but rather destroying him.
And what better way then a weaponized FBI?

Rubio being very dishonest, signaling his establishment credentials.

The Obama Medvedev exchange sounds strangely like collusion.

Good...the little pipsqueak kills his political career. I’m good with that.

They have so much nasty s**t on him. Too many bathhouses for Little Marco.

Did not stop Obama from occupying the White House for 8 years. What will stop Rubio is his pointless sniping at Trump. Can’t get to the nomination without Trump voters. I don’t even like or trust Trump that much, but Rubio is at the top of my shit list along with McCain, Flake and Graham for his relentless sniping at the Donald.

Exactly. Rubio isn’t even on the ballot for another 4 1/2 years. He could literally say/do anything he wants at this point. So when he carries water for the Democrats/uniparty it can only be seen as an FU to POTUS and the millions of people who elected him to enact a MAGA agenda.

“They Were Investigating ‘Suspicious’ Individuals”

Well they must be investigating you.

We are so fortunate that Trump appeared. The thought that Rubio or Bush or (what’s the name of that idiot governor in Ohio) might lead the Republicans makes me nauseous.

Rubio continues to strive for being the most useful of useful idiots around.

Allow me to rephrase that slightly:

Rubio continues to strive for being the most idiotic of useful idiots around.

Let’s hope Rush sees this thread and denounces him.

Even if that were true, they still can’t do that just on their own say-so.

Where is teh meeting to warn Trump of the so-called “suspicious individuals”? Why didn’t Hillary get the same favor and teh same level of “protection”?

I suppose given his unforgivable error with the Gang of Amnesty, he’s got not much left to lose, but if he had a tiny sliver of credibility with me left, it’s definitely gone now.
