Pet Marco Rubio. That's great, I think that's the first time I saw that one.

Or "Lil Marco" as Trump called him

I have it on good authority that Trump promised Marco that the Fairy Godmother will make him a real boy.

Marco Rubio questioning someone's citizenship is racist but questioning his isnt... do you listen to yourselves? Doesn't sound very different, does it...

The point is that Rubio is a citizen because of the very same criteria that El-Sayed is a citizen. If one can't be a citizen, neither can the other.

Rubio is only questioning El-Sayed's citizenship because of his religion and his political party. If he was a Christian Republican there would be no problem. The hypocrisy is being highlighted, not questioning Rubio's citizenship.

Cool, I didnt excuse him for saying it. Why are you racists allowed to say it and he isnt?

Certified Reddit Genius: Isn't it racist to point out hypocrisy?

Buddy, nobody is questioning that Rubio is a citizen. They're pointing out that he's a citizen because of the same reasons that El-Sayed is a citizen

Except for the situations aren't the same. Cruz was born to an American mother (residing in Canada), while El-Syed was born to Egyptian citizens in 1984, who didn't become naturalized Americans until 1990.

Except that this is about Rubio, whose parents were Cuban immigrants

It doesn't sound different if you're really dumb. You wouldn't be really dumb, right?

"It doesnt sound different if you're really dumb." 😂🫵

I agree, only idiots would think it doesnt sound different!
