Marco Rubio vs Mitt Romney

fuck them both forever, they’re both fucking awful human beings.. I guess Marco is unintentionally funny whenever he talks..

is there anything at all redeeming about marco rubio? or is he just a pure grifter basically? all i know is he doesn't exactly have the evil energy of say mitch mcconnell.

Leveraged buyouts tho

Romney: Retail Serial Killer (Guitar Center just filed for bankruptcy protection)

Not much light between them vis a vis their governing objectives I’d imagine, but Marco makes me viscerally angrier for some reason. Maybe it’s the Bible verses, or this priggish but ‘folky’ sort of tone he affects. idk, he just fucking sucks.

otoh, Romney has a two-termer vibe vs Lil Marco’s v much one-termer. Mitt’s professional life has certainly caused boatloads more suffering than Rubio. Also, Rubio kind of a dummy? So from a purely oppositional political perspective Romney is “worse”.

*folksy

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Before his 2012 presidential campaign I'd say Mittens was actually the rare good Republican. During the campaign he had to appease too many different bases and he gave his support to a lot of bullshit nonsense. And then he had that "makers vs. takers" speech at the private dinner. After his loss he retained a lot of the nonsense in his speeches and I lost most of my respect in him.

Rubio got in some good zingers during one of the final 2016 GOP debates. Otherwise he's just another racist & corrupt GOP goblin.
