Rubio: I Won't Talk About Wikileaks, and Neither Should Donald Trump
Abcnews.com ^ | Jonathan Karl and Ben Siegel

Posted on 10/19/2016 2:17:45 AM PDT by cotton1706

Sen. Marco Rubio tells ABC News Republicans are making a mistake by jumping on allegedly hacked emails released by Wikileaks to criticize Hillary Clinton. In fact, he says he won’t talk about the hacked emails at all. "As our intelligence agencies have said, these leaks are an effort by a foreign government to interfere with our electoral process and I will not indulge it,” Rubio tells ABC news. "Further, I want to warn my fellow Republicans who may want to capitalize politically on these leaks: Today it is the Democrats. Tomorrow it could be us."

Absolutely pathetic.He bought the ‘look the shiny object over here’ (Russian hacking) instead of looking at the truth the wikileaks has revealed. Another pathetic and insipid class of Repubs supervising the rape of the nation.

You can be sure Trump’s opponents would capitalize on it, if there were anti-Trump leaks.

Just the other day I read where someone said had Rubio gotten the nomination, he would be wiping the floor with Hillary. Hahahaha! What a joke!!!

Republicans made a mistake by not using the emails to get Bernie Sanders supporters really pissed off at Hillary.

They were screwed and they all need to know it...

Facts:

Wasserman-Shultz was Hillary’s campaign chair in 2008 and Tim Kaine was DNC chair when Hillary got beat by Obama.

Tim Kaine stepped down so Wasserman-Shultz could assure Hillary the 2016 nomination.

Tim Kaine accepted his payoff, the VP slot with Hillary which was predetermined according to the emails...

Bernie Sanders got SCREWED.

"As our intelligence agencies have said, these leaks are an effort by a foreign government to interfere with our electoral process and I will not indulge it,” Rubio tells ABC news.

I have yet to see any meaningful evidence that the hackers were foreign. Why would Rubio make such a brash assertion?

There are ways to make one less vulnerable or prevent hacking of emails. Perhaps the Democrats are too sloppy. Look at Hillary using a private, unsecured email server.

You cannot pretend that the hacking did not happen and carry on as if it did not happen like the Democrats would like for you to do. Go ahead, take the poison!

Bubbles Roofio has a vested interest in seeing Trump lose so he and Lyin’ Ryan can be the designated Establishment puppets in 2020.

Somebody needs to ask Rubio to give one good reason anybody should believe a word out of the US “intelligence community’s” mouth, after what Comey just pulled. Doesn’t Rubio know that these emails have exposed how the regime (including DOJ, etc), media, and Clinton campaign are all one and the same?

Well it didn’t take Global Snake Toy Boy Rubio Vermin to revert back to his true colors, did it?

He is such a tool, such a vile tool.

Rubio, I will not waiver in my resolve NOT to vote for you here in Florida. I hope there is a libertarian candidate running against you. If not, I will do a write in for someone else, you treasonous bastard. Hell is too good for you.

The guy should be embarrassed for vilifying the only source that has disclosed to the America people the wide-spread criminality in this country, but he is too stupid to even realize he should be embarrassed, which makes him a utter moron.

He seems to be implying there’s just as much dirt to find on the GOP side.

I think from the day that he arrived in DC....he was a bought-off political figure and just a pretender at the Republican Party. I think his whole strategy last year and through the primary....was that Bush would likely win, and that he’d get a cabinet post. When it’s obvious that this fell apart, then he talked of the governor’s race in Florida...where polls didn’t show him with that much potential. Today? I think he’d be better off as a defeated Senator.
