Your senator is a wretched embarrassment, Florida. Fire him. He's disgusting.

Marco Rubio

Every major social problem in America can be linked to fatherlessness

Wherever involved fathers are rare,crisis is certain to follow

And billions in government spending is no substitute for fatherhood

What has that clown done to address it, other than posting daily Bible quotes to present that he is somehow a Christian, when he sure as Hell doesn't act like a disciple of Christ?

...is that you can just say any-friggin'-thing you want. It doesn't have to be backed by fact or logic. Just say it, and *poof!* it's true.

Rubio is an ignorant, cowardly, imbecile who is going to be trounced by Val Demings. I can't wait!

Rubio’s dad must have been asleep at the wheel to have unleashed such a pos on the country.

Maybe Marco and his bribed cohorts in the Senate could do more in creating living wage jobs.

Using his framing, of course.

I was raised by a single mother.

Not human. At all.

It won’t be that easy to get rid of him. For reasons that truly baffle me, about half the state likes this sniveling dipshit. 🤷‍♂️
