Trump rewards 'Liddle Marco' Rubio for his years of sucking up
Donald Trump is expected to nominate Sen. Marco Rubio, who he once described as a lightweight and a choker to be secretary of state.
The impending announcement marks another major milestone in Rubios transition from somewhat feisty Trump political opponent to a complete submissive. During the 2016 presidential primaries, Rubio emerged for a moment as a possible alternative to Trump before the nomination had been decided. Trump then directed a barrage of insults at the Florida senator.
He made fun of Rubios height, giving him the nickname Liddle Marco. He accused Rubio of running phony television ads against him, said he was a record no-show in the Senate who was scamming Florida.
At one point, Trump even wrote, Marco Rubio is a total lightweight who I wouldnt hire to run one of my smaller companiesa highly overrated politician.
