Hispanic crowd boos Marco Rubio off stage

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) got booed off stage by a majority-Hispanic crowd at a weekend rally in Orlando, Fla.

The Cuban-American senator took the stage at Calle Orange, a Puerto Rican-themed festival on Sunday when some in the crowd started booing, NPR reported.

The jeering got louder as the senator, seeking reelection after dropping his presidential bid earlier this year, was introduced.

And when the emcee asked for applause as Rubio took the same, boos drowned out any supporters in the crowd, NPR added.

"Thank you for having me today," Rubio said in Spanish. "I want you to enjoy this day. We're not going to talk about politics today. Thank God for this beautiful day, and for our freedom, our democracy, our vote, and our country. God bless you all, thank you very much."

He left the stage to more boos from the crowd, according to the report.

If Mr. Gang of 8 wants to play race politics I have a hard time feeling sorry for him.

Marco is the worst of all worlds, as he says one thing in English to most crowds, then something completely different in Spanish to Hispanic crowds.  His people know he is a liar and will say and do anything to advance himself, including a 180 to run for his job after saying he would not.

This is surely  to do with a Cuban Puerto Rican type of rivalry.

I'm glad for the Cubs, I'm basically neutral, maybe a bit more for the Indians,

The Cubs as I've said look like a team of destiny though.

Festival attendants said they disapproved of Rubio's endorsement of Trump, who is deeply unpopular among Hispanics.

"When we have someone like Trump, who hits our Mexican brothers, our Latino brothers, then you jump on that bandwagon after all that stuff he says not only about you personally ... as a Latino, you're a freaking sellout. I would not vote for him if they paid me," Calle Orange attendant Angel Marin told NPR about Rubio.

Thanx Trump, for taking America's true enemies down.  Republican office holders.
