Rubio’s disguised attack
On a recent edition of the Fox and Friends TV show Marco Rubio stated that, “We already have a president now who has no class.” Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Once again, this statement is really just another thinly veiled racial slur.
Rubio's comment was a mean-spirited intentional debasement of the president. Even later in the day when given an opportunity to walk back his ill-advised comment Rubio choose to double down on it.
Sadly, Rubio and many others from the Republican Party have continued to use these ugly statements during Obama’s presidency and I believe much of it is racially based.
