Seems like someone opened up Marco Rubio's head this week and flipped a switch. It changed him from nice guy who said he wanted to focus on issues instead of making attacks, to mean mode where he's only attacking Trump. I don't think I've seen such a dramatic change in personality in a presidential candidate. It's like two different people.

So which do you prefer Mean Rubio or Nice Rubio?

Will this new strategy win him the nomination?

Trump has always who he has been and doesn't try to be someone he isn't.

Rubio is trying to copy Trump and what he says is just as stupid as how he acts and BTW he claimed he wouldn't act like Trump and now he is even lower than what he didn't like.

This is what robots do I guess. I get the feeling it might backfire on him somewhat. It completely eliminates the advantages that he did have over Trump.

Well said. However, I have a feeling people who are more likely to vote for Rubio won't be bothered by this phony act.


I think Cruz will be hurt by that handshake, though.


I have to say, I don't like either Rubio. I'm mystified how people could like either one.

What do you mean, he looked so happy and joyful when he was launching an attack on Mr. Trump. Big smiles. He wasn't mean, just truthful.

Didn't work out so well for him the last time he tried it:

Marco Rubio, Donald Trump feud: The strategy behind it - POLITICO

September 2015.

Go ahead, Rubio, take your best shots.

I don't prefer Rubio. I prefer Cruz. But I will vote for Trump over any Democrat (which will be Hillary).
