Rubio vs Vance?

Personally, as a somewhat of a RINO elitist who WAS a lifelong Dem... I prefer Rubio's establishment chops over Vance's populism.

I also feel that Rubio will be more appealing to women voters and they shall be the key swing voters in 2028.

was not in supporting the operation camp.

Also please be honest. If Rubio or Vance is the only 2 options (and you have to vote) to be next president, you will vote for Rubio. You and rest of the left will never vote for Vance for sure.

On his watch as Secretary of State, our relations with just about every country have gotten worse.

That is pretty much job 1 for the Sec State.

He is also National Security Advisor - and the interagency NSC process has essentially shut down.

But most good Secretaries of State are not totally shut out of the two most consequential diplomatic processes of their time. But Rubio has had nothing to do with either the Russia or Iran crises.

He is a turd in a suit. But he might get the war with Cuba that he has always dreamed of.

Central and South America (not Europe, Asia and ME) to reduce China's economic footprints and influence in U.S. backyard. He spearheaded the efforts to change Venezuela.

The Secretary of State does not just handle the Western Hemisphere. There is no such division.

This was agreement between Trump and Rubio before appointing him to be SOS. You even don't know it.

Being TDS is truly pathetic.

BTW Rubio is still under sanctions of China. He can't visit China, can't meet Chinese officials... How come can he be in charge of Asia foreign affairs which China is a big part? China gave him an exception this time to come to China with Trump for the purpose of keeping negotiation channel open during Trump’s visit. But those sanctions on him remain valid.

However they’re both tainted by MAGA doltism. I’d take DeSantis over both of them. He seems to have distanced himself from Trump, somewhat. I’m just not sure he has the charisma to appeal to younger voters.

Forward FAFO attitude. But they are still politicians and really cannot be trusted. They can switch their way of thinking at any time.

not hate for the reason of hating Trump. If they still do then they just prove that they are more in love with socialism than capitalism. That is really sad.
