Trump is casting the senator as “Marco “amnesty” Rubio”, because of Rubio’s 2013 membership in the “Gang of Eight” in the Senate that favored an immigration bill that included a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
The unknown man babbled on about a wire fraud between a reporter and Warren Buffett and accused Rubio of cheating on his wife as the moderator made continued efforts to silence him before getting up and helping security remove him from the event.
“It was actually kind of weird”, Rubio said.
“These votes that are happening in the Senate, we are not going to be able to make a difference unless we have a new president, and a better president”, Mr. Rubio said.
Rubio is forgoing a re-election run in 2016. “There should be a deduction in their pay, and I hope you think so as well”.
Byers explained, “Rubio’s defense has been – one, I’m busy running for president and two, there’s more to being a senator than casting every vote”.

“We’re running for the same position, but so are a lot of other people”, Rubio said.
But just below the surface, four candidates polling mostly in the single digits are jockeying to represent the GOP’s establishment wing in what many analysts believe will ultimately be a showdown with Trump, or perhaps one of the others. Everything is so fluid right now. That includes Trump, Carson, Fiorina and Huckabee. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., smiles during an interview with CNBC correspondent John Harwood at the New York Stock Exchange in New York, Monday, October 5, 2015.
Bush has taken Rubio’s rise as a serious threat.
Well, it does take time to run for president, we’ll give him that. Bush aides and allies have increasingly been highlighting Rubio’s poor attendance for votes in Washington – a tally that has also been fodder for another new Rubio agitator, Donald Trump. Rubio was happy to be moving up.
MacManus concludes, “It will come down to which one is doing better before Florida’s primary” on March 15, 2016.

Indeed, the growing rivalry between the two is ironic, opines Sunshine State News, because “whoever drops out first will probably throw his support to the other”.
