Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida speaking at the 2016 Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, Maryland, Gage Skidmore
January 26, 2021BankSen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) called impeachment a "waste of time," and he was drowned in fury and ridicule for sucking up to former president Donald Trump.
