Summary

Secretary of State Marco Rubio grew visibly frustrated during an ABC News interview when questioned about the Trump administrationā€™s approach to Russia.

Defending Trumpā€™s push for peace talks with Putin, Rubio insisted negotiations were necessary but admitted the administration didnā€™t know Russiaā€™s demands.

He clashed with host George Stephanopoulos over Trumpā€™s refusal to call Putin a dictator and the U.S. siding with Russia in a recent UN vote.

Rubio also compared Trumpā€™s handling of Ukraine to Bidenā€™s approach to Israel, further escalating tensions.

    Bidenā€™s approach to Israel

    seems absolutely sane by comparison to your boss, there, buddy.

    and if you were going to ā€˜bidenā€™ your support for ukraine, thereā€™d be a non-stop airlift going on with equipment and armaments.

      seems absolutely sane by comparison to your boss, there, buddy.

      Coming at the Israeli genocide in Gaza and calling it ā€œsaneā€ is one hell of a take.

        He called it ā€œsane by comparisonā€. He didnā€™t say it was sane. Words mean things.

            Oh, youā€™re one of those who canā€™t distinguish between genocide and super-genocide with golf resorts. I wish the world were as simple as people like you seem to believe.
