Republican Sen. Marco Rubio said President Trump must respond with more than just words if Saudi Arabia is found to be behind the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi or it would undermine the United States reputation as a champion of human rights.
Im glad the president didnt tie his hands in terms of exactly what we are going to do. But it needs to be very strong and meaningful, it cant be symbolic, it cant just be words, the Florida lawmaker said Sunday on CNNs State of the Union.
Trump has threatened severe consequences against Saudi Arabia but hasnt gone into details what that would entail.
Rubio said the response has to be strong.
If they lured this man into that consulate they went medieval on him and he was killed and he was chopped up and they sent a death crew down there to kill him. That would be an outrage, he said.
He added that the US reputation is on the line by how Trump responds.
Just because they are an ally in an important mission, which is containing Iranian expansion in the region, cannot allow us to overlook or walk away from that, he said. It undermines our ability to stand for morality and human rights all over the world.
How can we criticize (Russian President) Putin for killing journalists if we allow an ally to do the same? he continued.

Don’t you just love how these politicians love to talk tough and threaten action when they never have to sacrifice anything themselves? They just keep pulling in big bucks from defense contractors while they send other people to fight and die.
Was that l’il Marco?

The guy was not an American, what business is it of ours?
Oh SURE..!
Let’s just throw out our relationship with the biggest recent nominal reformer in Saudi Arabia and counter to Iran.
Yeah, over one, single MB fatty who rolled the dice and knew what he was doing.
Ridiculous.
Khashoggi is/was Muslim Brotherhood.
Quite the coordinated effort to break with the Sauds for Obama’s MB terrorists.
“The guy was not an American, what business is it of ours?”
I’m not sure Foamboy is either
A beautiful girl gunned down on a San Fran pier:
Nary a RIPPLE from the FedGummint.
Yet let one fatty get waxed in a sh*thole on the other side of Planet Earf..?
ALL the King’s Horses and Men are galvanized into a frenzy of protective action.
SOMETHING IS WRONG.
These people are idiots.
Exactly
Rubio must have run out of Bubble Parties to go to.
In case people were wondering how Obama fundamentally transformed America while republicans were in the opposition...look no further than foamboy and the rinos they make up the GOP. They all need to be brought to justice
That’s Rubio speaking for his globalist special interest advisers and lobbyists.
Was this guy an American citizen?
No? Then it really isn’t our problem.
“SOMETHING IS WRONG.”
VERY WRONG! Our stasi state is irreparably corrupt & so is the media. None of this is going to end well.
Look out...weve got a badass here.
Then it seems the President should find out exactly what happened first, before he jumps to conclusions based on media speculation like Rubio has.
No, he doesn’t. The guy is not a US citizen, he is not our problem. This is Islamic cult on Islamic cult death. The guy is also a member of the Muslum Brotherhood terrorist group. That’s two strikes against him. I figure if he’s dead, that’s on less terrorist to concern ourselves with.
