Rubio and Daines jeopardized the protection of Zelensky in order that they might crow on social media that they had been assembly with the Ukrainian president.
Putin has already attempted to assassinate Zelensky a minimum of 3 times and has been foiled in every try. For the reason that the President of Ukraine is the highest goal on Putin’s hit record, one would suppose that Republican Senators could be extra cautious and observe the directions that they got through Ukrainian Ambassador.
Marco Rubio remains to be burning with presidential ambition, however his movements proceed to be the ones of a reckless incompetent who shouldn’t cling a seat within the Senate, a lot much less the Oval Workplace.
It’s nearly as though Republicans are seeking to get Zelensky killed with their entitled and egocentric conduct.
