Every Democrat Who Voted to Confirm Marco Rubio Should Apologize

Senator Connecticut Chris Murphy announced Prior to the joint appeal to Congress on Tuesday, he would not participate in the famous campaign for Donald Trump. Tired of the President’s authoritarianism abroad and oligarchy, the democratic senator gave a sign that he was not going to sit in the audience in the Capitol and pretend that everything was fine. This was the right decision.

But this is just the beginning of Murphy’s refusal to respond to a new administration. The senator realizes that the Democrats are not enough to refuse to sit in soft places for an hour – or more – since Executive Assistant Elon Musk puts the best back on politics, which has already been proven that it sharply destroys both as it American economy and up to America Global reputation.

Democrats must admit that everything, and all related to Trump and Musk, become an extension of their approach to destruction. And Murphy seems to understand that faster than his colleagues – as evidenced by his confession During this weekend, he was wrong to support Trump’s allocation of former Senator Florida Mark Rubio, who holds the post of Secretary of State.

Unlike most Trump nominees who have survived at least some refusal of the Senate Democrats, and even in some cases Republicans, the nomination of Rubio was quickly approved Most Senate 99-0. Along with every Republican who voted, all democratic coaches have somehow convinced that their wildly ambitious Florida colleague would become a man of conscience when he swore as the country’s main diplomat.

Any serious observer tortured Rubio trajectory on the national political scene – which began with failure When he tried to denied one of the former President Barack Obama’s union’s addresses, he would never happen. Rubio who once marked Trump as “Kan -Most” And the republicans who “fell into this trap, supporting Donald Trump, have long redwood themselves as a captured Trump apologist.

But the Senate Democrats presented that Floridian’s history condemned Vladimir Putin’s Russian strongman – also with the support of the Ukrainian president of the Loladimir Zelensky and the Ukrainian people in the fight against the passionate forces of Putin – to allow him to go with the Pentz.

The proof of Rubio’s submission to Trump came quickly. If the President and Vice President JD VANCE planted Last week, Zelensky at a meeting of the Oval Office, which was supposed to focus on diplomatic efforts to end the war, Rubio sat on the side of Vens. Then, after help to expel Zelensky from the building, Rubio rush To the nearest television studios to defend Trump and Vens – and expand the fantasy that the Ukrainian president was the main barrier for a fair and fair resolution of the conflict.

Rubio’s performance was too big for Murphy. Appearing on Sunday on CNN’S The state of the unionMurphy, the senior democratic member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was asked about his preliminary support for Rubio. To his merit, the senator did not grind the words.

“You voted for the approval of his nomination to become the Secretary of State,” Dana Bash said. “Do you still think what made the right choice?”

Without stopping, Murphy replied: “It was a mistake. I think many of us thought Mark Rubio would confront Donald Trump on a similar question. That when donald Trump decided to align American with Dictatorship – Again, in order to make it easier for (trump) American People, Turn American Into An Ill-Liberal Democracy in which, Just Like Russia, The Oligarchs, The Economically Powerful People in America, Rest of Us Just Donald Trump Donald Trump Would Cut, Help Me Move America Closer to Russia and to Russia values, Mark Rubio was not a great disappointment for many of his former stations. “

Yes, it is fair to note that Murphy and any other Senate Democrat had to know better first. But his willingness to admit his mistake is important. This is a level of sincerity that the Democrats in Congress, which broke through the confirmation process, owe the American people. And the world.

At least another Senator -Democratic senator joined Murphy, rejected his voice to approve Rubio. Appearing on Fox News on SundaySenator Maryland Chris Van Hollen said “I voted for Mark Rubio to be a state secretary. I regret it. As a member of the Senate, Rubio Secretary was a man who advocated US values, US principles … He admitted that Russia was an aggressor against Ukraine. the president. “

This is the bright truth about Mark Rubio, who, to avoid any doubts, made it clear that there would never be nothing more than a foolish man for Trump, Vens and Musk.

Every Democrat in the Senate, along with any responsible Republicans who may remain in the ward, should be ready to join Murphy and Van Halen, saying that Mark Rubio should not be a state secretary – and apologizing for being so easy.

The hard and chaotic second term Donald Trump is just beginning. In the first month, Trump’s office and his Like -Elon Musk (or this is the opposite?) Proved that nothing is safe from sacrifice at the altar without checking strength and wealth.
