According to The Daily Beast, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) will boycott President Joe Biden's first State of the Union address.

The reason? Negative COVID tests will be required to attend — and he does not want to take one.

“I don’t have time to go take a COVID test today," Rubio told Igor Bobic of The Huffington Post. "I only take a test if I’m sick.”

1. Yet he still finds time to pick his nose.

Stay at home booger boy.

14. He's sucking up to his new King, Ron DeSantis. Since DeSantis won't send NG guards, he'll boycott.

.

He's LIDDLE MARCO, so he has to make up some lame COVID-19 excuse instead
of putting on adult pants and come right out and say he's boycotting it, because
he would need a boycott reason. Defending Putin was taken off of the table.


Let alone admit that he's trying to gain favor with DeSantis.

2. rubio is a coward and traitor. It's embarrassing that such a fool

can be a senator - just like cruz and half to 95% of the repug caucus.

3. He won't be missed. An empty suit if there ever was one.

7. No great loss, to be honest.

If they can’t show any respect for Joe then let them all,stay home.

8. Yet Little Marco still found time for a water break during his SOTU rebuttal speech.

9. If he has time to tweet about Ukraine, he has time to take a test

10. Val Demmings, if you are you listening?

Of course she is. She will be present tonight.

12. His admiration for Putin . . . ..

who requires Sars 2 Covid testing prior to meeting him and as seen in pictures where you must be far away from him at meetings, etc.

Oh the irony. Bottom line, and there are quite a few of the GQP congresscritters will do the same and blame it on the testing, during a universal crisis.

[Chainfire]

13. Will Rubio abstaining shut down the event?

In Florida, we send our best and brightest to Washington. DeSantis is working overtime to be worthy.

To Hell with Rubio.

15. I did a drive thru last Nov, nose swab test

Takes a couple of minutes

Did it 4:30 pm on Wednesday and got results 8:30am Thursday morning using app. Was able to go to friends house for Thanksgiving

I took test because someone in office had tested positive for covid


Rubio is full of malarkey!

[PJMcK]

16. A PCR test takes all of what? A minute? Rubio is a coward

Rubio doesn't have a minute or two to take the test?

Here's another reason Rubio is a coward. If he wants to boycott President Biden's speech, he should take a political stand against it. Using the Covid test as an excuse is hiding behind his momma's skirt.

He's such a piece of human garbage that I don't understand how anyone can support him. He's done nothing for his constituents and he's embarrassingly stupid.

[Deuxcents]

17. My Senator is a moron

[tanyev]

18. And nobody would have noticed if he hadn't alerted! the media.

Whatever, Marco.

[sop]

24. He's running for re-election this year.

DeSantis has upped the ante and all Florida Republicans have to toe the anti-vax/mask/testing party line.

[Emile]

19. OMG, I hope no republicans show up tonight. That will

show up us lib's.

[spanone]

20. It will be better without his sorry ass there.

[panader0]

22. One less repub to potentially yell "You lie".

[spanone]

23. What pathetic little weasels

[bucolic_frolic]

21. This is Rubio's way of saying "I sit at the head of a very long table." /nt

[Crunchy Frog]

25. I'm sure he'll be sorely missed.

[hlthe2b]

26. Umm. Test takes far less time than it took to create your ludicrous press releaase, Rubio

announcing how little time you have.

[Midnight Writer]

27. Rubio already had one of the worst attendance records in the Senate. Quite a reputation.

He's too busy hoovering up RW cash from mega-donors.

[Baitball Blogger]

28. If only he had advance warning there would be a State of the Union address today.

[MurrayDelph]

31. That's today?

You'd think MSNBC would have said something.

In the plus side: this means Rachel's back.

[Iggo]

30. He ain't got 15 minutes to help protect a thousand people?

Dude needs to find a new line of work.

[Carlitos Brigante]

32. Muthafucka', seemingly, you don't have time to do your job as it is. Gotta be one of the

laziest bastards to ever squat on the Senate.
