Marco Rubio Brilliantly Defends Attacks of President Obama During Republican Debate
< < Go Back
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio defended repeating an attack he made against President Obama during Saturday’s Republican presidential debate, in which he said on four separate occasions that he wanted to dispel the notion the president doesn’t know what he’s doing.
“It’s what I believe and it’s what I’m going to continue to say, because it happens to be one of the main reasons why I am running,” Rubio said in an exclusive interview on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos” the morning after the debate.
At Saturday’s debate hosted by ABC News, Rubio said, “And let’s dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing.”
“Let’s dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing,” Rubio said a second time.
The line drew the ire of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who called it the “memorized, 25-second speech” as Rubio began the remark a third time. Rubio later made a similar remark a fourth time during the debate.
