Florida Sen. Marco Rubio offered praise to former President Donald Trump following his triumphant entry into the RNC following his assassination attempt.
MILWAUKEE— Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, a finalist in former President Donald Trump's search for a vice presidential running mate, arrived at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday with praise for the GOP nominee despite him ultimately picking Ohio Sen. JD Vance to join him on the ticket.
Rubio predicted Trump's highly anticipated Thursday speech would unify Americans around his 'core message' that's 'always been the same.' 'There's nothing scandalous about it. He wants to put America, and Americans, above anything else. And, if our president is not going to do that, then who is?' he said.
After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,' Trump wrote. Vance was warmly welcomed while appearing on the convention floor during his nomination process later in the day, where he stood alongside members of the Ohio delegation.
Vance is a fantastic choice. Americans will soon see this is an incredibly intelligent and talented man who is completely committed to making America great again. Vote for #TrumpVance2024 so we can unite our people and save our country!' Rubio wrote in a post on X following Trump's announcement.
