Marco Rubio is a U.S. senator. And he just can’t stand it anymore.
“I don’t know that ‘hate’ is the right word,” Rubio said in an
interview. “I’m frustrated.”
This year, as Rubio runs for president, he has cast the Senate — the
very place that cemented him as a national politician — as a place he’s
given up on, after less than one term. It’s too slow. Too rule-bound. So
Rubio, 44, has decided not to run for his seat again. It’s the White
House or bust.
“That’s why I’m missing votes. Because I am leaving the Senate. I am not
running for reelection,” Rubio said in the last Republican debate, after
Donald Trump had mocked him for his unusual number of absences during
Senate votes.
