Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed.
Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio.
He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

Every (R) that celebrates Reagan celebrates the neoliberal caused downfall of this nation, and the rise of the oligarch.
Every single one of them, including Rick himself, spent countless hours pouring hate onto the 'others'. In their case it was Muslim hatred.
Sickening!
At least you’re trying to make up for past mistakes.
"It Was All A Lie"
He repudiates all it
The descent began with Reagan kicking off his '80 campaign with a speech in Philadelphia, MS, talking about his love of states' rights.
Then a cascade of dishonest self serving clowns
Like Newt ...
Then W, until 2016, the dumbest POTUS
Lied us into a war because Saddam was mean to daddy
More tax cuts
I could go on
Overarching point: "Trump is not the CAUSE of this idiocy; he's the RESULT of decades of it"
His paid them back with tax cuts that our slide into what's now $30T+ in debt and created our homeless problem
So much for being fiscally conservative
Law and order?
HAHAHAHAHA
38 of his enablers were criminally indicted/convicted
Welcome to the Democratic Party Bob. We need more people like you. 🫶💙
Do people actually think most liberals LIKE wasting money?
They *don’t* understand that taxes pay for government services they use.
I won’t belabor the point by repeating the argument from someone complaining they wanted a “flat tax” without actually meaning it.
Just my two cents...

This "freedom loving "son of Cuban exiles" (which is a complete lie) knew exactly who he had whored himself out to with his lies and his love of fascism. We assume everyone despises a despot, and this is a childish mistake. Republicans adore them.
Anyone who willingly prostrates themselves to Trump deserve everything they now experience.
Noticed the weird vibe about Rubio as well...
Good.
He can get F'd!
I sincerely hope he rots with guilt the rest of his life. I give zero fux
The GOP would've lost WW2.
Any questions, look up Hitler's Germany and the Holocaust!
Help us poor dumb Democrats conquer the evil 🟠fascist!!!!
GHWB's 1988 campaign featuring Lee Atwater's daddy, Willie Horton was an exercise in dog whistle tuning. And Saxby Chambliss's a prick.
But, I LOVE THE LINCOLN PROJECT?
And you're right, Rubio is a bastard!
💥Buy nothing from Amazon, Walmart, Target, Gasoline, Movie.💥
Shut down all your spending to tell all #MAGA NO MORE.🤬
Stop Trump & Musk from destroying America.
PLEASE REPOST FOR OTHERS
Rick is an enormous help but he is still a proud Republican & I keep in mind that he helped put Bush Jr in the WH awa Rubio. That does not mean we cannot make common cause.
You are right.

So what exactly was "promised" to the #GOP? Money, sex, power, skeletons in their closets revealed? Families threatened?
What bribes a full #Republican House & Senate at this point?

Rubio, like other MAGA Republicans, will sell out America to avoid a nasty X/Tweet or being signaled a 'target' by TheFelon.
Or, maybe it's just being in the shadow of corruption and power.
My mom's mantra, 'Actions speak louder than words.'
I also look for patterns.
I was a Guardian ad Litem and watched a parent promise to change behavior... She did - briefly. She couldn't sustain the required parenting behaviors more than 3wks. She lost parental rights.
Traitor is lil Marco
"I have no moral center when it comes to political ads, and I will destroy the innocent and the guilty"
This was not a high point.
Each Republican politician seems so much better than the next. Sort of a race to the bottom.
I’m glad you walked away.
“Oh Yeah? Hold my beer” JD (Shady) Vance
The means justified the ends and now we all suffer because the GOP wouldn’t die an honorable death.
David Frum nailed it.
Sadly, the application line to renounce the US citizenship at the State Dept is over a year long and the cost is over $3K
I am contemplating taking off and becoming a digital nomad, at least for the next four years :)
That hurts
... and I'm not talking fluoride.
Putin, Musk and Trump own Rubio
He'll literally do anything, take any position they ask him to take
The perfect stooge
Or, if you prefer, the perfect apparatchik
They're not getting rid of that
They’ve got an entire party of House and Senate leaders who are 100% complicit
Who’s left to push back?
When he shuts down support for Ukraine - and he will - and Putin goes on a tear, who’s left to stop him?
Zelensky is due to go out a 10th story window any day
And if there’s any legal pushback, the Court of Clarence is right there as his reinforced concrete backstop
I’m ashamed of that fleeting thought also.
That makes me trust you a little more.
Tim Miller has expressed regret on podcasts. There is also his ~mea culpa~ book,

I’ll take you at your word, and assume he continues to be moderately self-aware.
JFC their own politics prior to Trump contributed to bringing us here. They think they can go anti Twitler and that’s enough.
No, to be truly credible in their politics they must give serious introspection & ATONE for all their raggedy bullshit since Reagan, whom they STILL venerate!
Perfect maga material: Brain-free & read-only for marching orders & talking points.
No need to make sense or waste breath on truth.
now he is an SOB!

As some who are already feeling YOUR HAND IN THIS
Boy was she right…
I wish my 26 year old nephew would run. He is so smart, strong and charismatic. Very engaged in what is happening and has worked on campaigns in the past.
