Rubio Desperately Tries to Spin Trump’s Putin Flop

The president said he'd be "unhappy" if he walked away from his meeting with the Russian leader without a ceasefire agreement, which is exactly what happened

Yawn.

OP: ALL TRUMP NEWS, ALL THE TIME HERE AT DL.

When will the fat ugly orange anus go away???

All the spin doctors in the world couldn't explain that result away. Rubio twisted himself into a convoluted pretzel trying to paint an even remotely satisfactory answer.

Rubio is disgusting. I watched him interviewed on The Week just a few minutes ago and he is a disgusting liar.

What about Vairst Lady's personal note to Putin? Surely that touched his heart.

by Anonymousreply 4August 18, 2025 12:32 AM

It was hilarious watching Rubio sounding desperate. Talking loud and fast, trying to show you have command of a topic when you don't, fools no one.

Little Marco is such a tool. In a cabinet full of toadies he may win the prize. And not the Nobel prize.

I wonder if Little Marco regrets his move or still views it as an opportunity. He was often annoying but still had some credibility and stature in his secure Senate seat.

The best part, Notes of the meeting were left in a business center after they left lol.

r8 Yep, 6 posts about that today

No —those were schedules and a menu prepared by the protocol team.

Trump didn’t take LadyG with him on the trip. It was a huge mistake. Had Putin been given an hour with her in private, thinking about conquering anything else becomes secondary.

Marco must be feeling a bit precarious in his position:

The State Department is offering monetary bonuses to diplomats who demonstrate fidelity to the Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

A diplomatic cable, dated August 15, invites supervisors to nominate diplomats and support personnel for cash bonuses when they have “demonstrated fidelity to the Secretary” for cash bonuses under the “Meritorious Service Increase” (MSI) program.

Tell me again why the US should be considered a functional democracy, instead of a corrupt plutocracy?

by Anonymousreply 15August 18, 2025 6:16 PM

Those mud flaps on his head are so distracting. I wonder if he can hear things in outer space while resting in bed.

Rubio was very pro-Ukraine and anti-Russia during the Biden administration and supported the provisioning of arms to the former.

My, how the worm has turned.

R4 no, Putin touched pussay

He looks 70 in the pic at OP.

Who would have thought the guy introduced to the nation while nervously gulping from a bottle of Poland Spring would be in this position now?

In their haste to sign their Mortal Souls Deals, the minions often forget to read the fine print of the Physical Appearance clause, R19.

I wonder if a single foreign leader or diplomat has met with Marco Rubio and found him trustworthy or deserving of respect. He's just an glorified PR shill for whatever dumb idea Trump has that week.

Yeah, we know.

FIFY. YWIA.

I wonder if a single foreign leader or diplomat has met with any single Trump administration official and found him trustworthy or deserving of respect.

Rubio is so desperate to the President and feel kissing Trump’s ass is the only way he’ll get close

by Anonymousreply 25August 19, 2025 12:07 AM

Yes Trump sucks but it isn't as if everyone else was successful in making peace for Ukraine or Israel before him. Our lives may depend upon it.
