After a string of leftwing buffooneries, Rubio throws Colombia's President Petro out of the U.S.

One of President Trump's most valuable cabinet members, Marco Rubio, who wears both the Secretary of State cap, and the National Security Advisor cap, gets called on to perform a lot of duties

One of them is the equivalent of barroom bouncer.

At the United Nations, he threw out the president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro from the U.S. premises.

That was after a string of leftwing buffooneries and outrages.

Two days ago, it was buffooneries:

It should be noted that this was the assessment of Colombians who also believed he had not just been drinking but snorting cocaine.

It ought to be compared and contrasted with the speech delivered the same day, from President Trump. Leftists, of course, didn't like the impromptu statements done without a teleprompter based on U.N. incompetence or worse, with Trump hitting Europe heavily for its open borders policies and the United Nations itself for its failure to bring peace to war-torn nations, but everyone paid attention.

Petro, in contrast, emptied the room when he started blatehering on in a drunken stupor about the wonders of Stalin, which not even the Russians are stupid enough or drunk enough, to do.

Petro kept the idiocies going the next day, when Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu made a speech before the General Assembly. Many nations' delegations walked out, disgustingly so, but none quite so disgustingly as Petro, who...

Rubio is definitely one of Trump’s best appointments.

I saw a video a week or so ago. In it they were discussing how dangerous it is for US Ex-pats in Medellin (maybe other nationalities as well) now. I knew they were setting up guys with “dates” who turn out to be highly makeup covered bait. Offering LTR or STR.

Once the guy invites the Señorita (sometimes 2) to his hotel they slip him a very power sedative, and rob him blind. Sometimes taking even his shoes and belt etc. This sedative they use actually grows naturally there and is some sort of flower extract. It’s so powerful it can easily kill if overdosed. They seem to not care much either way.

Here is the shocking part; They said there have been FIFTY Americans murdered that way this year alone!!! (No haven’t fact checked it)

Agree with “Suprisingly”. As a Senator he seemed more of a talking head - all hat no cattle. In this role he really is “taking out the trash”. Never could have guessed it.

I would have shipped him to Alligator Alcatraz for an overnight before deporting him with the other deportees rather than risk shipping his ass back on a commercial flight

rob him blind

Could be worse. Like waking up in an ice bath in the hotel room tub with both kidneys removed. It's a rough world out there.

He seems to really have a tremendous grasp on foreign policy. I never thought of Marco as a foreign policy wonk and it’s surprising to me.

He really seems to have come into his own. I never expected this and am pleasantly surprised
