KARL: I need to flip to politics. There was some reporting this week that you’re presumably into account to be Donald Trump’s operating mate. I don’t put a variety of inventory on this reporting proper now, we’re early. However you stated it might be an honor to be supplied a spot on this ticket. Actually?!
RUBIO: Yeah. I feel anybody who’s supplied the chance to serve this nation as vp must be honored by the chance to do it — if you happen to’re in public service. I’m within the Senate as a result of I need to serve the nation. Being vp is a vital method to serve the nation. However I’ve additionally been clear: I’ve by no means talked to Donald Trump. I’ve by no means talked to anyone on his staff or household or interior circle about vp.
That’s a call he’s going to make. He has loads of actually good folks to select from.
KARL: However, I imply, the explanation why I ask is as a result of…I imply, look what occurred to the final man. I imply, a mob stormed the Capitol, actually calling to hold Mike Pence, and Trump defended these chants of “Cling Mike Pence.’”
RUBIO: I’ll inform you this — that when Donald Trump was president of the USA, this nation was safer; it was extra affluent; we had relations, for instance, in part of the world that I care about known as the Western Hemisphere that had been very sturdy. We received a variety of good issues finished there. I feel the nation and the world had been a greater place when he was president.
And I might like to see him return to the White Home compared to the man who’s there now, Joe Biden, who’s been a catastrophe…economically. Have a look at the world. Each single day, we wake to a brand new disaster, to a brand new battle, all the pieces has gone on hearth. Because the time Joe Biden took over, Afghanistan’s gone down, Ukraine has been invaded.
Now, the Philippines and the Chinese language are on the verge of one thing dangerous taking place each single day, to not point out the threats to Taiwan. Now we have this blow-up in Haiti happening in our very personal hemisphere. We get up each single day — terrorist assaults and 9 million folks throughout the border. That’s what issues to me.
KARL (stuttering): However, however, however I imply, I imply, I imply, you’re not suggesting that’s all taking place due to Biden? I imply, look —
RUBIO: Completely I’m. Completely, I’m suggesting it’s taking place due to Biden. He’s president, and his weak spot and his…
KARL (shocked and sputtering): It’s due to Biden that, that, that Russia invaded Ukraine?!
RUBIO: Completely.
KARL (stuttering): It’s due to Biden that that Haiti. Okay, let’s…
RUBIO: Completely. I imply, Putin is sitting there saying, “These guys can’t even stand as much as the Taliban, they usually should fly folks hanging off the wings of those airplanes, now’s the time to go.” And…
KARL: I imply, Trump’s the one saying, suggesting that there must be a deal that successfully provides Putin what he desires in Ukraine. However look, can we take a fast…
RUBIO: Nicely, that’s not true. He’s stated he desires the battle to finish, which, it’s putting to me that individuals…why wouldn’t folks need peace? What I’ve stated is there may be going to be a negotiated peace.
Russia’s not going to take all of Ukraine. And Ukraine’s not going to push Russia again to the place it was in 2014. I would like Ukraine to have the higher hand in any negotiation.
If Trump was watching this interview, he needed to like what he noticed from the person he as soon as derided as “Little Marco.” Rubio has come a great distance since that brutal 2016 Presidential major in opposition to then-candidate Trump.
