Rubio's "announcement" is fitting

A day after Hillary announced her candidacy in a short video targeting voters outside the "1%", Rubio announced today on a conference call with his top donors.

Is that fitting or what? This is who the GOP speaks to and works for, the donors. And yes, I know democrats do it too... but they don't give 100% influence to the rich like the GOP does.

and he used his wee little
'Nobody will notice my tiny three-fingered tiny sippy cup - Cup'



His tongue was trying to reach out to that little sippy cup the entire time he was talking... he finally had to grab and and slurp it all down before his tongue stuck to the outside of his lower lip from nerves.

He's a loose cannon.

All we need now is Donald Trump!

So then I'm right about being wrong.

Wouldn't that be great? He just calls in his platform, to the select few.

I WAS looking forward to following him in the race, tho, 'cause he is cringe comedy gold.
