Rubio: Trump's foreign policy answers 'very concerning'
The Hill ^ | 9/4/15 | Mark Hensch

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) is questioning Donald Trump's foreign policy chops after the GOP presidential front-runner appeared to stumble in a recent interview.

“If you don’t know the answer to these questions, then you are not going to be able to serve as commander in chief,” Rubio said during a stop in San Juan, Puerto Rico, according to CNN.

“This should be part of the reason why you are running, because you understand the threats that the world is facing, you have deep understanding and you understand what to do about it,” he said without naming Trump. “And if someone doesn’t, I think it is very concerning,” added Rubio, himself a 2016 candidate for president.

Rubio’s remarks follow an uncomfortable exchange between Trump and radio host Hugh Hewitt over international affairs earlier this week.

If you have ever spoken in public, or a camera, a dry mouth can happen in an instant.

On national TV, in front of millions? I've never seen it happen before. Marco just doesn't have it.

As usual, Rubio is wrong. I don’t care if Palin, Trump, or even the communist in our White House can name the current leaders of Hamas, Hezbollah, or other terrorist organizations. What I object to is Obama not being able to recognize that they are terrorist groups; the names are mere trivia.

Rubio’s I was for legal immigration before I was against it is very concerning. This coming from a man who has what 2% in the polls.

MARC-O

Donald doesn’t need a lecture from a so-called conservative on US foreign policy. Especially a rube who is willing to give away ‘the farm’ to every Julio, Jorge, and Juan who made the decision to cross our borders ILLEGALLY and sponge off WTP once the invader arrived. SILENCIO!!
