Not a damn thing! Hence, we must describe Donald Trump as a fool masquerading as the toughest man in the room. He is no such thing.<\/p>\n<p>I happen to think relatively highly of Rubio, a former Republican senator from Florida. He once ran against Trump for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination. He called Trump a &#8220;con man&#8221; and a fraud, urging Americans to resist casting their ballots the so-called champion &#8220;for the little guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rubio sought while running against Trump to expose him for the blustering buffoon he has turned out to be. Then he became a Trump toadie once his former foe got elected POTUS.<\/p>\n<p>What I must remind y&#8217;all is that Rubio stands high up in the presidential line of sucession, at No. 4 behind the VP, the House speaker, and the Senate president pro tempore.\u00a0 Musk&#8217;s standing? It&#8217;s nowhere, as he was born in South Africa, made his billions and now has the ear of the POTUS.<\/p>\n<p>For Elon Musk to dress down the nation&#8217;s top diplomat is a disgrace. That the president would allow it is even more disgraceful.<\/p>\n<p>Yep.
