The secretary of state could not contain his fury as he sparred with ABC News host George Stephanopoulos.

Summary

Secretary of State Marco Rubio grew visibly frustrated during an ABC News interview when questioned about the Trump administration’s approach to Russia.

Defending Trump’s push for peace talks with Putin, Rubio insisted negotiations were necessary but admitted the administration didn’t know Russia’s demands.

He clashed with host George Stephanopoulos over Trump’s refusal to call Putin a dictator and the U.S. siding with Russia in a recent UN vote.

Rubio also compared Trump’s handling of Ukraine to Biden’s approach to Israel, further escalating tensions.

    Fetterman was a plant. Someone posted an article about how he actually governed before he was a national level leader.

    Plus I consider all humans to be psychotic apes who I wouldn’t trust as far as I can throw them. Including myself.

    Fair point, and thanks for reminding me! The people who don’t want it are probably the people most capable and worthy. I look forward to your filing as a candidate! 😀

    Don’t hurt me please. I’m only half serious, but it’s exactly people with this attitude who should probably be on the ballot.

      This comment made me realize I have a religious obligation to run for office. And then if I win to not do the job at all.

      The major problem, one of the major problems, for there are several, with governing people is that of who you get to do it. Or, rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: It is a well known and much lamented fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.

      To summarize the summary: Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made president should on no account be allowed to do the job.

      To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem.
