“How easily as he was coopted and manipulated by the gang of 8 shows how easily he might be coopted and manipulated if he did win the presidency.”
Rubio had established a long record of siding with illegal aliens when he was Speaker of the Florida House. He used that position to kill any bills attempting to deal with illegals.
He wasn’t manipulated at all. The Gang of Eight was the real Rubio. He’s lying when he pushes the idea that he was fooled by Schumer.
Rubio is just one more GOPe weasel, albeit a slicker, latino version.
Shumer and McCain did manipulate him, because, through the committee and Senate votes, Rubio was the face of the immigration bill on the news programs.
Shumer and McCain though the new face might help them get it passed. They used him and he let.
