During an MSNBC town hall on Wednesday night, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) admitted that he’s not proud of launching personal attacks on Donald Trump, mocking the candidate’s hair and hands, prompting Trump to discuss his manhood at a debate.
When asked by an audience member how he can justify attacks on Trump as a Christian, Rubio said that he does not regret criticizing Trump’s policy views and business record, but said he would not launch personal attacks again.
“In terms of things that have to do with personal stuff, yeah, at the end of the day it’s not something I’m entirely proud of. My kids were embarrassed by it, and if I had to do it again I wouldn’t, but not on the other charges, not on the other things,” Rubio said.
When moderator Chuck Todd followed up, Rubio said that he did not want to run that type of campaign.
“First of all, I think he had to be stood up to. I really do believe that. But that said, that’s not the campaign I want to run,” Rubio said. “If that’s what it takes to be president of the United States, then I don’t want to be president.”
He went on to tell the audience member, “Though what I really regret the most is having to answer your stupid question.”
Shouldn’t have they be asking Drumpf how he can be such a vulgar asshole and claim to be a Christian?
Why? His base loves him for the specific reason that he is a vulgar asshole.
And a good Christian, don’t forget that. Otherwise why would Drumpf claim he is one, as hard as that is for a conscious person to believe? (Conscious as in capable of seeing what there is instead what they want to see.)
Trapped in a media pity party, Marco? I’m sensing tiny huevos clipped by Trump’s tiny hands and assisted by Chunk and Tweety’s pearl clutching and point missing…
