What About That Marco?

Marco Rubio really hit one out of the ball park the other day with a master quality speech. Now they are talking about running him for president. I must admit, he did sound good. However, I do have serious reservations.

Two things bother me. Before Trump stepped in on the scene, he was one of those held in high esteem for pushing the big comprehensive compromise about the border and he was one of the biggest proponents of the idea. He was the primary one pushing for it. Had he become president, there is not one doubt in my mind that the country club Republicans would have gotten their low wage illegal aliens. While the current president has his Secretary of State well under control, just how much pressure would it take from the country club crowd to drive him back to the position from wince he came. He would be right back to his his old ways.

More importantly, as I listened to that speech carefully, I detected an element of globalist in him. If he is still a globalist, the he still is in favour of the famous comprehensive compromise, another way of saying cheep illegal labor for his friends in the county clubs. Indeed, I would suspect this very day, he is still amigos with the RINOs. I will continue to believe it at least until he denies it.

Permit me to include a reminder. Trump and Cruz were the last two contenders for the Republican nomination. They were also the only two that were in favor of sealing the border. When the people shut down the comprehensive compromise, it should have given them all a hint. However, Rubio was not bright enough to take the hint. I am not so sure he is today.
