's upcoming impeachment trial"stupid" while acknowledging the former president's role in the Capitol mob riot.
"I think the trail is stupid. I think it's counterproductive," Rubio said during a Sunday appearance on"We already have a flaming fire in this country, and it's like taking a bunch of gasoline and pouring it on top of the fire," he added.previously blamed Trump for the insurrection, to which Rubio responded:"I think the president bears responsibility for some of what happened. It was most certainly a foreseeable consequence of everything that was going on.
The Florida senator continued:"I think that's widely understood and maybe even better understood with the perspective of time. I think that's separate from the notion of 'let's revisit this all and stir it up again.'""Yes, the first chance I get to vote to end this trial, I'll do it because I think it's really bad for America," said Rubio.
"If you want to hold people accountable, there's other ways to do it, particularly for a president, including, as I said, the perspective of history," he added. Sen. Marco Rubio is shown above speaking during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Border Security and Immigration hearing on Capitol Hill on December 16, 2020 in Washington, DC.The House of Representatives impeached Trump earlier this month for his role in inciting the violent Capitol riot, which left five dead.Senate leadership, however, agreed to
Which one is it Rubio
Pathetic
THIS IS THE BATMAN VILLIAN 2 FACE. WHICH IS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF 'IF LITTLE MARCO RUBIO WERE A CARTOON CHARACTER WHAT WOULD BE?'
Thats because 1/4 of the GOP was complicit towards the insurrection..
Marco Rubio just made a bigger fool of himself. Brilliant!
Thanks for admitting trump has responsibilities in the coup, but America have to march on with this trial just as hard as those terrorist marched into the capital; with a purpose. People who pus so hard to stop accountability always have something to hide. Stop the GOP cover up!
trump should be held accountable for the deaths that resulted from his riot.
Little Marco attempts 2 take the wheel of the GOP and get control of narrative -
There should be criminal charges against the conspirators, participants, collaborators and all those who assisted in the assault on the Capitol; even the peons who open passageways and gave directions in the Capitol and locations of the congress people.
If Republicans can’t see why Trump must be impeached, they don’t deserve to be in the Congress! “1: Subverting the 2020 election 2: Inciting an insurrection 3: Abusing the bully pulpit 4: Politicizing the JD; 5: Obstructing the Mueller investigation.... “
Looks like marcorubio wants to have it both ways. Remember, if the glove fits...
All you anti-American congress people need to remember something, whatever Trump has on you to keep you from being real Americans, Biden now or soon will have the same information! Tick-tock... get ready to beg for mercy, while you wait for that hammer to drop! marcorubio
ResignMarcoRubio
Ivanka is already knocking hard his extra sized ears👂 LittleRubio he better vote 🗳 YES to impeach Trump and start bringing out all the dirts aboutTrump + his fail Administration, including Ivanka. Nepotism
If my kid throws a brick through my neighbor’s window, I’m going to discipline my kid, have him apologize to my neighbor and make him pay to replace it. Even if we’re moving out of town the next day.
If there is no price for what has been done then the next time will be much worse.
No. It's more like holding everyone accountable for their actions. Like we should do with Marco Rubio for sedition. Remove and indict all those trying to overthrow our government. Every last one of them.
This officer was killed. Trump was responsible for his death as president. Tell his family he died for something stupid.
Hate to break it to you, buddy, but Ivanka Trump is probably going to go after you job. Don't say you weren't warned.
Does he even know who he is?
marcorubio is an enabler.
Be quiet Marco.
Rubio is worried that trump children will challenge his senatorial seat
Each and every seditious Repukelican 'lawmaker,' what a joke, should be expelled and prosecuted along with Trump for the half-a-million citizens for whose deaths they are directly responsible. ProsecuteTrump ProsecuteSeditiousRepublicans
ROFLMMFAO.....
Ummm, who is stupid then?
So what is the problem with standing up for Trump betraying his oath of office? Doesn't seem like to much to think about unless of course you only think about yourself? Is that the principle you teach your children? Do we stand for what is proper unless it does not benefit you?
get a grip his words all depends on how someone interpret it many heard yet not everyone participated the ones that did are grown adults if they didn't know right from wrong action its on them or else ppl can use every government person as excuse like also devil made do it
Just come clean tell Americans what he really did.
Isn't ARSON a crime?
You know how you put the fires out? You cut the head off the snake. You hold those responsible accountable and you do it publically and transparently so that everyone sees the evidence is incontrovertible and irrefutable. No fire if the proof is in the pudding.
sistercrow If it were Obama, little Marco would be screaming from the highest hill top. He's just showing his shallow righteousness once again. Just wait till Trump runs against him. Think he's nervous looking now? He'll be Don Knotts level nervous real soon.
This Speech tells you everything you need to know about Rubio’s positions —-
Is there a Bible verse for that?
And he must be held accountable
Anyone that even tries to overthrow the Democracy of our Nation needs more than impeachment, treasonous actions should be prosecuted and not even trump should be exempt.
TRUMP INCITED AN INSURRECTION THAT RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF A FEDERAL POLICE OFFICER AND THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF THE FORMER VP AND THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.

Translation ? Trump commits crime but he’s one of us (Republicans) and we loyal to our own even if that means a criminal can avoid being held accountable under the law !
well it's true birds of a feather flock together
He's good with attempted insurrections every four-eight years? Because there's no reason all future presidents won't try this if there are no consequences for doing so. Goodbye democracy.
Also against helping struggling Americans, admits to just being a little “bitch”.
Yes, making people accountable for crimes sure is stupid.
Yes, it certainly would be stupid to hold a president responsible for trying to maintain power by overthrowing the government. Oh, wait....
Someone tell Marco Rubio it doesn't matter what he says. Ivanka will still primary him.
We are all done hearing about Trump. We demand no more reporting on him. He should be made irrelevant. His stories should be ignored in favor of real news. MakeTrumpIrrelevant NoMoreTrumpNews
Of course it’s stupid - it threatens REPUBLICAN DONOR MONEY
No self respect little Marco! No self respect!
He'll claim he was misled by Trump's lies and that's why he supported Stop the Steal and the riots.
Stupid is as stupid does, Marco.
