It looks like Rubio’s performance at last night’s GOP debate got under the Donald’s skin. After tweeting an incomprehensible block of anti-Rubio gibberish this morning, Trump got schooled by the dictionary and tried again.
Lightweight Marco Rubio was working hard last night. The problem is, he is a choker, and once a choker, always a choker! Mr. Meltdown.

Lightweight choker Marco Rubio looks like a little boy on stage. Not presidential material!

But the usual Trumpish trashing didn’t seem to slow Rubio down this morning. Quite the opposite: Trump’s rush to bash him appears to have provided the formerly robotic Floridian with a burst of charisma. After coming after Trump on Twitter himself, Rubio dished out some spicy smacktalk at a rally in Dallas, accusing the Donald of having a makeup crisis and perhaps a pants-peeing backstage meltdown during the debate.
