"The Ultimate Conjob."

Marco Rubio knows a trial without witnesses is not a fair trial, but this shameless sellout just doesn't care.

We can’t say we weren’t warned. Even Fox News viewers heard it. A top Republican appeared on Fox News and warned viewers Trump was “trying to pull off the ultimate conjob.” Trump was a liar, we were told. He preys on people’s fears and anxieties. He will destroy America if given the chance. “This has to end,” said the top Republican.

Of course, this interview happened a lifetime ago. February 2016 to be precise. And a lot has changed.

For starters, that top Republican, a highly principled conservative man of God once hailed on the cover of TIME Magazine as “The Republican Savior” is now himself a corrupt, craven, lying con artist, and total disgrace to the United States Senate.

In other words, a Trump loyalist.

He is, of course, Marco Rubio.

Back in 2015, Rubio was running for President based, in large part, on his combination of religious extremism and “foreign policy credentials.”  In those days, he was warning about “an abundance of enemies wishing to undermine us.” Today, he is the one doing the undermining. Instead of protecting America from foreign attacks on our democracy, he’s now participating in them.

In one of the most tortured explanations as to why he voted, against the wishes of 75% of Americans, to deny witnesses from being heard in Trump’s impeachment trial, doormat Rubio said:

Just because actions meet a standard of impeachment does not mean it is in the best interest of the country to  remove a President from office.

In other words, Marco Rubio SAID OUT LOUD that Trump is committing impeachable offenses—abusing the power of his office to invite foreign interference in our elections—exactly as the Founders feared a lawless President might one day do. But Rubio is not going to vote to remove him from office. He’s not even willing to let American voters hear from the witnesses who could help them better understand Trump’s plot to cheat in the next election. That’s not so much a cover-up. It’s more like a confession that Republicans are now accomplices in an ongoing criminal conspiracy.

Unprecedented from The Daily Edge is dedicated to exposing Trump’s and the GOP's corruption, cheating and conning. Because losing in 2020 is not an option.
