Sure, I love it when he talks down to Europeans. To me, the Eros and the democrats are two sides of the same rotton coin.

Which is why, i believe disengagement is the way to go.

Im a Western Hemisphere hawk, because it seems logicall that Chinese influence in the west is a very bad thing.

But what has Rubio really done to extract us from the Ukraine war... which imo Clinton, Bush, Obama and Biden set the stage for?

Where is his firey speech agaist that?

And are we to forget the horror of all our post ww2 military adventure...all the blood and devistation and nothing but debt to show.

Where is his speech on that...with yet another middle eastern war about to begin.

Most of all, what is Rubio's position on tarrifs? Deindustrialization?

To me, that is the number one issue.

Is Rubio, with his tough talk, just recruiting MAGA back into the hawkish traditional conservative wing of the GOP?

Is he likely to pursue reindustrialization?

I'm sorry. I'm not willing to go back to the McCain, Bush world.

I'm with Vance.

Vance with Rubio
Or
Rubio with Vance

Is the way to go

It’s best for either of their chances to stop nitpicking them sooner rather than later

Rubio would wipe the floor in a GE especially against a newsom, Kamala, aoc etc..

Still have concerns domestically like you said, but I think he found his groove through the past 5 or so years. He was an ardent Trump supporter since 2016

No way should Rubio EVER be one bullet close to the POTUS.

Rubio has been a neocon for 30 years. I dont hate him, but playing nice with Trump for a year doesn't mean he has changed.

I talk to war veterans all the time with broken bodies, minds and hearts. I love them all. The best among us. But given history, it is hard...very hard to conclude thaf their valiant sacrifices resulted in anything positive at all. And that is unforgivable.

I think Vance gets that. Not sure about Marco.
