When it comes to Trump’s second administration, Marco Rubio has been a pleasant surprise for conservatives. People expected him to do well as Secretary of State, but it’s fair to say that he has exceeded pretty much everyone’s expectations.
In many ways, he is like the ‘new and improved’ Marco Rubio – Now with more conservatism!
Today, as he was exiting Air Force One, a journalist asked him a bout Cuba and he gave a response that included an epic comment about communism.
PJ Media has details:
On Thursday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio addressed the press, both at Donald Trump’s Cabinet meeting and before boarding a plane to Paris for the G7 Foreign Affairs Ministerial. He had what many have called a “mic drop” moment because he didn’t hold back on his thoughts about how what we’re doing in Iran is a “favor to the world” and how other countries need to “step up.”…
“Mr. Secretary, on Cuba, two questions. So for decades you have been a proponent of regime change, but now there seems to be a sense that perhaps President Trump would be happy with a win which would only entail an economic deal,” the reporter asked.
Rubio responded, “You said there’s a sense. Where do you get that sense from?”…
“Do you still want regime change or would you be okay with an economic deal?” the reporter asked.
Rubio responded with a mini lesson on communism (emphasis mine):
What do you mean an economic deal? Look, Cuba’s economy needs to change, and their economy can’t change unless their system of government changes. It’s that simple. Who’s going to invest billions of dollars in a communist country? Who’s going to invest billions of dollars in a communist country run by incompetent communists, which is even worse than communists. The only thing worse than a communist is an incompetent communist.
