“Now, they’re [Democrats] trying to make up for it by coming after people that actually know what they’re doing and wanna help this country. And that’s Marco Rubio.”
WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined “The Evening Edit” on Fox Business to discuss Democrats’ attacks toward Secretary of State Marco Rubio during his hearings on Capitol Hill this week.
Excerpts from Senator Tuberville can be found below, and his full remarks can be found on Rumble or YouTube.
MacDONALD: “Joining us now for reaction from Senate Armed Services—he’s Alabama Senator, Tommy Tuberville. Senator, it’s always great to have you on. What do you make of what happened with Marco Rubio—the Secretary’s—testimony today?”
TUBERVILLE: “Well, number one, he’s standing up for the American people. He’s standing up for our country. And he’s standing up for our Constitution. You never see that from the Democratic Party who’s actually turned into the party of cartels and criminals—it’s absolutely amazing to me we have a plan. There was no plan, Liz, here for four years. People were running amuck. There was no rudder on their ship. They had no clue where they were going. Now, they’re trying to make up for it by coming after people that actually know what they’re doing and wanna help this country. And that’s Marco Rubio.”
MacDONALD: “He also said that U.S. foreign aid, that it’s not a charity that it sits squarely inside U.S. national interests overseas. What did you make of that when you heard it?”
TUBERVILLE: “Well, I thought it was a great comment because people look at us as somebody that—in terms of the Democrats—of somebody that’s selfish. They don’t do things for other people. We help more people than all the other countries combined. And he just said that, and I’m proud for Marco Rubio bringing that out because very few people like to talk about it. The American taxpayers really help millions of people all over the world and it needs to be advertised every day, but you would never know it if you’d ask the Democrat[s] because they think that the American people should be giving everything away and not keeping anything for themselves to make them stronger as a family.”
MacDONALD: “So, when you saw the Democrats perform, do you think any of them landed any punches?”
TUBERVILLE: “Oh, no. No. There again, Marco Rubio, he could debate all of those people all day long and they’d never get anything over on him. He’s much smarter than they are. He believes—again, when you have a game plan, when you have an idea of what you wanna do—an outline—and address the future of your job, you can handle whatever they put out at you, but they were scrambling. They were trying to make him look bad. I’d put Marco Rubio in front of any of these people and he would win every time.”
MacDONALD: “Senator Tuberville, it’s always a pleasure and it’s great to see you again. Thanks for joining us tonight.”
TUBERVILLE: “Thank you.”
Senator Tommy Tuberville represents Alabama in the United States Senate and is a member of the Senate Armed Services, Agriculture, Veterans’ Affairs, HELP and Aging Committees.
