Where were those Disney workers located you might ask? Why in Marco Rubio’s home state of Florida, where some 250 Orlando-based workers were not only let go and replaced by cheaper (and younger) foreign workers – they were also required to train their foreign worker replacements.

"I just couldn't believe they could fly people in to sit at our desks and take over our jobs exactly," one former worker, who wasn't named and is now unemployed, told The New York Times. "It was so humiliating to train somebody else to take over your job. I still can't grasp it."

Neither, apparently, can Marco Rubio.

He is now 100% off my list of potential candidates. If it’s between Rubio and Hillary, I’ll vote 3rd party or not at all for president.

These clowns can rot.

Wonder if Rubio is still Mark Levin’s favorite...

Every Republican who voted for this provided the final vote.

Every Republican who voted for this provided the final vote.

While that is certainly logical, there is also a view that says that holdouts are holdouts because they have something to trade. What's the possibility that Rubio traded something that we don't know about?

Why do so many conservatives who generally oppose government regulation of the economy want the government to decide who we can trade with?

Cruz’ flip-flop on this was quite strategic.

So was Hillary’s.

Ok, I haven’t been paying 100% attention but I thought the other day this entire deal was dead and Obama’s little trade dream was over. How did this come back and resurrect itself so fast and PASS? I am so sick of this evil man getting his way....I don’t get it. Can someone explain?

“... in exchange, they may find that they are losing something far greater: the trust of the American people...”

WHAT?

AS IF the current government was EVER trusted. When did this administration or the idiots in Congress HAVE the trust and esteem of the American people?

I knew Rubio would vote for it long ago, when he gave a speech before a bunch of multinationalists, bent down and kissed the ring of capitalist internationalism, corporatocracy.

Agreed, The GOPe Senator from Texas, John Cornyn, fell right in line with GOPe Leadership.

Glad Ted Cruz got his mind right before the vote.

It's a little unfair to put it all on Marco Rubio. All of the new conservatives who begged us for money....Ernst, Cotton, Sasse (and there are others) voted for this nation-ending "strong victory for Obama". That is how the media is describing it.

Marco Rubio is the one who should've known better. If he had voted against it, it would've redeemed him somewhat from being played by McCain and Schummer to take all blame for supporting the invasion of the US.

Now, I'd think for conservatives, he's as bad as Jeb.

They've got to have something real on him. JMHO

Marco Rubio was one of 60 that voted to pass the legislation. Had any of the 60
voted differently then the outcome would have been different. To lay the blame
on Rubio alone is stupid, imo.

Actually, it is to complete the selling of America down the river. After obamacare and this have run their course, America, as it was once was, will no longer exists. If you are young enough, you will probably witness it.
