1. [Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz throwing down over who could speak better Spanish at a Republican debate still makes me giggle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bk4pCXwkbY)

2. Damn best of all Chuck Schumer said he would vote to confirm him. 

3. Why is this pinned when all the drama is with the Bondi hearing?

   She’s already been exposed as an election denier and it’s just unraveling from there.

4. Ayyy more interruptions

5. Welp we already got an outburst, that’s 2 for 2 so far

6. Honestly surprised that Trump picked a neocon for this position. Least worst nomination out of the bunch, and hopefully the FSOs keep him in line.

7. Listening to someone like Marco Rubio talk who is obviously a smart person and then listening to someone like Trump talk is so depressing.

   I might not like Marco Rubio’s politics but at least he isn’t a complete absolute idiot like Trump is.

8. I think Marco is a weak man and he bends his knee at a moments notice…however, he is smart and educated on these questions asked in the confirmation…he will easily pass.

9. Marco is easily one of the best cabinet appointments and will easily get 75+ votes.

10. LOL at Rubio caring about Muslims after bashing them earlier in his speech.

11. He’s actually qualified. It’s a MAGA miracle.

    He’s still a horrible person though.

12. This is the biggest non-event. He’s qualified and well known, this will probably be the easiest nomination to approve

13. It’s kind of funny that the one candidate with real qualifications is the one that’ll likely have the least influence. Trump doesn’t respect the State Department and prefers to be his own diplomat.

14. To think Rubio of all people is probably the least-bad option we could expect. I expect Little Marco to last a year, maybe 18 months, before saying or doing something President Musk doesn’t like and getting canned.

15. Marco Rubio makes Hegseth look like the complete inadequate, unqualified clown he is. Also, Hegseth doesn’t need the contrast for anyone to see he couldn’t lick the boots of his predecessors.

16. Rubio isp qualified and lazy, the ideal Trump candidate for this position.

17. Rubio is a good pick.

18. Why is it such a feature of republicans today that they are not allowed to even say Biden won 2020?

    It’s so crazy that we are going to have an AG who doesn’t acknowledge election results.
