As top Republicans on Saturday rescinded their support for Donald Trump or even called for him to leave the race, Sen. Marco Rubio was silent.
How long can Rubio keep up the increasingly odd two step?
Rubio condemned Trumps words on Friday night, after his campaign initially said he was focused on the hurricane.
Donald's comments were vulgar, egregious & impossible to justify, Rubio wrote on Twitter as a cascade of condemnations flew from other Republicans. No one should ever talk about any woman in those terms, even in private.
Rubio says he stands by all the criticism he leveled in the presidential primary, the con-man taunts and a lot more. But he has has concluded he needs Trump or needed him to help him win re-election, so hes been supportive while keeping a clear distance.
It hasnt been pretty, but the dance has worked.

they informed Rubio after that fact so that he would be aware.
