Joe Scarborough Slam Dunks Marco Rubio For His Absurd Defense Of Trump Filching Classified Information

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough lit into Republican Sen. Marco Rubio (FL) Tuesday morning for his latest absurd defense of former president Donald Trump’s stealing of classified documents when he left the White House.

Over the weekend, Rubio pooh-poohed the notion that Trump had somehow broken the law by having hundreds of top secret documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, remarking:

“This is, really, at its core, a storage argument that they’re making.

I don’t think a fight over the storage of documents is worthy of what they’ve done, which is a full-scale raid and then these constant leaks.”

Rubio knows better, Scarborough insisted, pointing out that he’s the ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee:

“I mean, there is no line. Marco Rubio was running the Senate Intel Committee, so you have Marco Rubio saying, top secret documents are only at risk if they’re mishandled by Democrats. Top secret documents mishandled and actually taken, removed from a government office, removed from the White House and illegally, improperly hidden at Mar-a-Lago, even after the FBI negotiates and tries to get them all back, it just doesn’t matter. So, again, is there any line? No, there’s no line.”

The MSNBC host added:

“Now it’s a storage issue? No, it’s not a storage issue. Nobody ever believed it was a storage issue. Marco Rubio never believed it was a storage issue. If you take top secret documents out of a government building, Marco Rubio would be the first person to say, like me in the past, you go to jail. You go to jail.

“The hell with institutions, according to people like Marco Rubio. The hell with top secret documents, the hell with the FBI, the hell with the CIA the hell with the Justice Department, the hell with the rule of law.”

Rubio is a hack who sold out years ago. Here’s hoping Val Demings cleans his clock in November.
