[NY Post] President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly set to pick Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as his secretary of state – a decision that will make the Cuban American senator the first Latino to serve as the nation’s top diplomat.

Rubio – the son of Cuban exiles – has represented Florida in the US Senate since 2011. He serves as the vice chairman on the Senate Intelligence Committee and is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

#2 One it wasn't a puppy. Two it was disruptive to other farm animals. She took care of the issue herself it wasn't like she called in a SWAT team. It wasn't like P'Nut.

#4 The Rubio pick seems swampy, am not too hot on him after his UN Bill.

CNN was running clips of Rubio today when Rubio debated Trump in 2016 and he said you cant trust Trump because of Trump has small hands. How can you trust someone with such small hands /unquote.

#5 It does move Rubio out of the Senate. Maybe Musk will look at State immediately.
