Rubio Defends FBI on Trump Probe — They Were Investigating ‘Suspicious’ Individuals
breitbart ^ | PAM KEY

Posted on 05/27/2018 9:08:36 AM PDT by davikkm

Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Sen Marco Rubio (R-FL) defended the FBI’s action during the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump by saying they were investigating individuals with suspicious histories connected to Russia.

Rubio said, “As far as what I have seen to date, it appears that there was an investigation not of the campaign but of certain individuals who have a history that we should be suspicious of that predate the presidential campaign of 2015, 2016.”

He continued, “When individuals like that are in the orbit of a major political campaign in America, the FBI, who is in charge of counterintelligence investigations, should look at people like that. But they’re not investigating the campaign. They’re investigating those people.”

I go so far as to even vote for the Democrat in the case of a Paul Ryan or John McCain. We’re better off on the long run.

Marco Rubio spent lavishly on a GOP credit card, but some transactions are still secret

“He explains things away enough to convolute the issue and then people don't even know what the question was.”

Hmmmmmm? Starting to wonder if Rubio is looking for a new bigger luxury boat he can’t afford on his salary. I wish Alan West stayed in FLA and ran against him.

Isn’t anyone in public life mature any more?

Like little boys getting revenge for not being able ride the new bike or get into the treehouse, they pout and call names and get back at their rivals.

Hillary, Rubio, McCain,Romney,Jeb,Kasich and all the rest are childishly jealous that the American people legally voted for Trump and elected him.

Now they get revenge whenever they can.

Is Rubio a Democrat now? Why would he make such a ridiculous statement?

If they were not interested in spying the political campaign they would have told Donald Trump about the so called potential security risks with in his ranks.

To not tell Donald Trump amplifies their so called security Risk by preventing Trump from knowing about the problem and mitigating its threat.

The only reason you would not tell Donald Trump is if you were spying on Donald Trump himself.

Little Marco is just a pouting little girl, still angry about losing to a viable candidate.

Hey Rubio, if the FBI was investigating "Suspicious’ Individuals" why didn't they warn Trump?

I'll tell you why - because FBI thugs were really investigating Trump..

Rubio’s ass is hangin’ way out on this one because he was involved from the get-go. No surprise he would parrot the Brennan-Clapper-Yates party line.

By why would Rubio out himself NOW, when all his fellow rats appear to be trapped in Dead End Alley, unless he believes the good guys have discovered incontrovertible evidence that he in this up to his neck?

And when will we hear from Jeb Bush? Anybody?

My quick answer to your question would be, Rubio has terrific political instincts and is quite glib, but in the end, he’s not all that smart. Not an unusual combination for a politician.

Looks the Obama era FBI spying on Rubio was a lot more fruitful at digging up dirt on Rubio than the spying on Trump was at digging up dirt on Trump
