After all the comments about hands, hair, and getting the name Little Marco from Trump, Rubio is now on board with Trump and will speak on his behalf at the convention in Cleveland in July. Stopping short of saying “I endorse Donald Trump”, Rubio said he will do everything he can to make sure Donald Trump beats corrupt Hillary Clinton in November. Someone might want to tell Bill Kristol and the clowns at the Weekly Standard this.
Marco Rubio now on board with Trump |

A lot of Rubio supporters will likely be pissed off that he’s supporting Trump now. Many of his supporters early on only supported him as a foil to Donald Trump. Regardless, Marco Rubio at least did the right thing. Which is more than I can say for a lot of other Republicans. I would love to see Trump pick Rubio as his Vice President.
Former Republican presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio said Sunday that he fully supports former rival Donald Trump’s White House bid, apologized for his personal attacks in the bruising primary and hinting that he’d even speak for Trump at the July nominating convention.
“I want to be helpful,” the Florida senator said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Rubio argued that supporting Trump, now the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, is the only way to keep Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton from becoming president, regardless of some of his scorched-earth campaign rhetoric.
“Despite all my differences with Donald Trump, I have a better chance to get a conservative-nominated Supreme Court with him than I ever will with Hillary Clinton,” he said.
It will be interesting to check the former Rubio supporters reaction to this on social media.
