Floridians -- Call Rubio's office(s) now!!!!!!

Forget Scott's office, focus on Rubio. I called his DC and his local office. The tl:dr version is: the staffer agreed with me that Biden is President-Elect, and that Rubio knows Biden is our next President. I used this to pressure Rubio to be a true patriot and insist publicly the GSA sign off on the transition NOW. I played up the security issues, CV-19 issues with Seniors, and how Trump refusing to concede is literally the same as a dictatorship. I admit I played up the Cuba thing.

I actually think Little Marco, as horrible as he is, is starting to really crack.

I really went for the Cuban angle because of his background. The staffer was REALLY open and sympathetic, and they are usually jerks when I call.

He has no spine. Lil Marco will do what's politically best for Lil Marco. If he has to become a Nazi to win the primaries in '24, he will.
