BASH: You voted to approve Marco Rubio's nomination to be secretary of state. Did you make the right choice?
CHRIS MURPHY: Nope. It was a mistake. It was a mistake. I think a lot of us thought Marco Rubio was going to stand up to Trump on an issue like this.

Thanks to the Supreme Court, a completely legal and untraceable fat sack of money.
With Trump, there’s always worse.
Block every single little thing, all the time, they have declared war on democracy and America, treat them like the enemies they are!
He knew exactly what he was voting for.
This is why people have become cynical about politics.
Sorry👺Suckers, Traitors to Americans!
Grow a pair & take out the trash
If Murphy & other genuinely believed that, each of them who did should resign immediately as you do not have the character & maturity to hold office

But Rubio fell in line with all the other Rcons after that.
Bernie is the Lefts Golden Goat Balls that they love to lick just like the Marlago cult.
YEAH SURE. Democrats arent that dumb, they're co-conspirators. And if they're that dumb, they should all resign RIGHT NOW
The Senate Intel Committee report on Russia's 2016 election interference was good, and chaired by Rubio.

Marco Rubio has wet spaghetti for a spine. Of course he won't be standing up to Trump.
I think you're wrong, possibly a bot. Or just a maga here to cause problems. Every gop senator is on the take or weak.
Protocol & procedure, in this time seems ineffective, as Gibson's character literally runs circles around them.
Our Democratic leaders must adapt quickly, or we will have no Constitutional government.
Not suggesting violence. But, adapting to meet the moment.

They got paid.
Remember, it’s completely legal to bri er, T.I.P.
It’s crazy to think otherwise 🤔
I'm choosing to try to salvage what we can while we can. If you're unhappy now, act now. Now is the time, don't wait around for a better one that may never come.
The solution isn’t just blaming the older generation and thinking they’re morally and intellectually more capable than those they insult
What’s needed is people with backbone and a readiness to get uncomfortable as they get back to serving the people
The older Dems have to choose to step aside, and they are not
What a freakin mess. We knew it was bad. Now we know how bad.
anger - move it along.
Channel it elsewhere.
➡️ Choose your battles ⬅️
You know things are bad
Rinse and repeat ad nauseam.

Stop playing nice.
Grow a spine.
Push back.
Just say NO!

Just say "I was pretty sure he would flop but I did it anyway. Trying to be a team player I guess."
Murphy has admitted the mistake & I don't think he's voted for any other nominee recently.
May this be a *major* lesson learned by the Dems.
Because if it wasn’t it should have been.
NONE of the people trump nominated are qualified.
Perhaps we should be the ones nicely paid with wonderful healthcare and they should be jobless.
No quarter given to ANYONE who has supported this administration, ANYONE.
Rubio is now being Rubio'd.
Sen. Chris Murphy and Sen. Chris Van Hollen say they now regret confirming Rubio. Who in their right mind would ever think Little Marco Couchcushion would stand up to Trump? Fantasyland

One should be careful being mistaken for any part of a couch near the VP
The only people being had is us.
Dumbass
I was glad my child was old enough I didn't have to explain what the orange menace was saying.
Anybody who agrees to work for somebody who treats them like that will do whatever they are told.
2. Good on Murphy to admit he made a mistake.
But what a bunch of fvcking marooons
Now? Can’t see how one could believe Lil Marco is anything but a lap dog for Trump.
Rubio is a spineless piece of shit. He’s never stood up to Trump. Quite the opposite.
At least Murphy has the guts to admit he's wrong.
Guess I'll go workshop it on the cats now...
No one- literally no one - thought Rubio would stand up to this Trump administration.
Not a single person.
It's good that he admitted the mistake but explanation to 'Why did you even participate in this in the first place' is so weak and unlikely-sounding, it undermines his sincerity.
Believing that Rubio would stand up to Trump is unfathomably dumb.
Admitting to believing it is admitting you are unfit to hold office.
God damn i swear too many of you are just as big an enemy as MAGA
They are ADDICTED to Biden/Garland bipartisanship and cowardice to a point where they are becoming Republican lite shills and not even trying to stop any of the illegal oligarchic coup
No one in the base wanted Rubio approved
I could understand Dems thinking Rubio was better than other possibilities. https://daviscenter.fas.harvard.edu/insights/marco-rubio-russia-and-ukraine
trump only picks cowards to serve under him, and if by chance they grow a pair they know it’s bye bye job hello maga threats.

But come on man, everybody knew what was going to happen. And now you are complicit in it.
You don't think your money bros would ever let you down like that, but here we are!"
On the other hand, if he said, “you know, compared to other people Trump was likely to nominate, Rubio was the least bad option”, I’d have some sympathy with that argument.
were the Dems all born yesterday or do they think we were?
