Trump encourages little Marco dogcatcher to run for Senate

WASHINGTON (AP) — After months of trading vicious insults, Donald Trump and Marco Rubio are suddenly making nice.

Trump has added his voice to the growing chorus of Republicans encouraging Rubio to run for re-election to the Senate, despite mocking him for months as "Little Marco" and insisting he "couldn't get elected dogcatcher" in Florida.

And Rubio is returning the favor, going on CNN to declare he'd be "honored" to speak at the Republican National Convention in favor of Trump, the same person he trashed as a "a con man who's pulling the ultimate con job on the American people."

As always in politics, the new alliance is about expediency. Trump has apparently decided he needs Rubio to help keep the Senate in GOP hands, a stance being promoted by Senate Republicans from Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on down this week. And Rubio, who is seen as having ambitions to run again for president in 2020, can't easily afford to alienate Trump and his many supporters.

I think he is being considered even now. There is no shame or strength of character at all with those people. Political and business expediency drives them. Nothing else.

there would be no reason for consideration on the basis of political and business expendiency. What does rubio even bring to the table?
