But that did not stop him from trashing the romanians having their elections revoked because of manipulation concerns "without proof", just days after pardoning the people who stormed the capitol to revoke american elections because of what they read on Twitter. We are living in a clown world

Like him one day suggesting that insulting judges should be illegal, but two days later he ranted and raged other that "radical far-right lunatic" judge.
Every accusation is an admission. And they unfortunately don't even notice their hypocrisy(though I tell myself that Rubio hate himself).

Is this was a pulp fiction novel everybody would have stopped reading after less than a week, almost a decade ago. Too surreal and clownish to be believable.
