Trey Gowdy to headline Rubio fundraiser
Politico ^ | 9/21/15 | Kyle Cheney

Posted on 09/21/2015 7:55:46 PM PDT by VinL

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) will get an assist Tuesday from one of Hillary Clinton’s chief antagonists at a fundraiser supporting his presidential campaign.

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi — which has relentlessly examined Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s role in the attack on a U.S. mission in Libya — will be the featured guest, according to Florida Politics.

Florida Politics also reported that the event, which will charge a minimum $2,000 per couple, will be hosted by real estate investor Harlan Crow and his wife Kathy at their palatial home in Highland Park, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. Crow, an avid art collector, counts works by Renoir, Monet, and Adolf Hitler among his holdings.

Rubio has been moving aggressively to court Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's donors. The event comes a day after Walker's decision to exit the race and after Rubio’s campaign poached Walker’s New Hampshire campaign co-chair, Cliff Hurst.

Trey Gowdy has proven to be totally useless.

Marco Rubio and Trey Gowdy. There, my friends are two of biggest disappointments of the 21st Century. I know, I had great hopes for both.

This committee hasn't even been active long enough to have done that. Politico just loves hyperbole.

Donald, next on your list of the establishment's fake conservatives--- Rubio.

If the 'establishment' is going to start supporting Rubio that will indeed be news - he has refused to "wait his turn" - now twice - much to their chagrin. Also I don't know that Rubio has praised Canada's single-payer healthcare system in the course of this campaign, lectured "you conservatives" that we would "have to get used to it" that we need to "take care of everybody" on healthcare, called for continued funding of Planned Parenthood because they do "so many good things", getting into spending / hand-out war with Bush, etc.

Trey, you are history, along with your prized RHINO Bonehead the orange man Boehner. What about Benghazi Trey? And that pesky corruption at the IRS, where is that going? There is never a denouement to any corruption investigation by any “select” house committee. What poppycock, pure nonsense by the entire congress. GFY Trey Gowdy!!!! We have had all we can handle. You are the problem, not the solution.

Trey Gowdy is tipping his hand here for those with eyes to see, he’s on board the Cheap Labor Express.

I believe that Trump said a Canadian style health care system would not work here. But I didn’t mean to interrupt your non fact based tirade against him.

One thing I’ve noticed with these candidates is that their family backgrounds are essentially bereft of military service. It is interesting.

Trey just dropped fifteen or twenty notches in my estimation.

Gowdy—all talk, no action. I imagine that would be Rubio as President, also.
