Ya. Rubio is called down for spending money he has earned by his book. The low life left is attempting to to smear the right and hopefully fool the useful idiots into refocusing away from the actual thieves in government. Pathetic child like finger wagging.
Like this N Y Times article.
Note the calling out on his accepting monies from Norman Braman for employing him and not calling it what it is, a salary. DIPSHITS !!!!!!
The only people who accept this yellow journalism are those who fish for half or tainted facts skewed to meet their emotionally fueled naval gazing ideals.
The New York Times earned itself some Twitter mockery last week when it ran a piece about Senator and 2016 candidate Marco Rubios (R-FL) dozen-odd parking tickets, info the Times swears it got on its own but which critics maintain it repurposed from a Democratic oppo research firm.
Tuesday morning the Gray Lady ran a second feature, this one a more expansive probe on Rubios finances, from his students loans to his purchase of a speedboat to his less-than-successful real estate hobby. Here, have a block quote:
Among the serious contenders for the presidency, Mr. Rubio stands out for his youth, his meteoric political rise and for the persistent doubts about his financial management, to the point that Mitt Romneys presidential campaign flagged the issue when vetting Mr. Rubio as a possible running mate in 2012, interviews show.
A review of the Rubio familys finances including many new documents reveals a series of decisions over the past 15 years that experts called imprudent: significant debts; a penchant to spend heavily on luxury items like the boat and the lease of a $50,000 2015 Audi Q7; a strikingly low savings rate, even when Mr. Rubio was earning large sums; and inattentive accounting that led to years of unpaid local government fees.
But as Mr. Rubio, 44, seeks to counter questions about his stature and readiness for the presidency, his financial history creates particular complications. It has made him unusually reliant on a campaign donor, Norman Braman, a billionaire who subsidized Mr. Rubios job as a college instructor, hired him as lawyer and continues to employ his wife.
And it could undermine Mr. Rubios well-crafted political persona: The senator has long portrayed himself as a champion of financial austerity, railing against excessive government spending and runaway debt.
Ya. Rubio is called down for spending money he has... (
