Rubio and His Personal Billionaire Backer
Yeah, This Rubio
Powerful and very troubling story headlines;
Billionaire Lifts Sen. Marco
Rubio Politically and Personally
BTW I say right up front: this story STINKS to high heaven in more ways than this NY Times article points out:
A few details: Billionaire auto dealer named Norman Braman has helped Rubio as he ascended in the ranks of Republican politics, for example:
A few details: Billionaire auto dealer named Norman Braman has helped Rubio as he ascended in the ranks of Republican politics, for example:
- He has bankrolled Rubio campaigns.
- He has financed Rubio legislative agenda.
- He subsidized Rubio personal finances (as Rubio and his
wife grappled with heavy debt and big swings in their income).
- He hired Rubio's wife.
- He gave Rubio access to his private jet.
Rubio in turn has managed to get tens of millions for
Braman and his business interests.
So, my question remains: Should Rubio be investigated about say, quid pro quo? I think so. But, will it? Not likely. Why not? Who wants to kill their Golden Goose (or geese) as it were.
Still the contents of this story stink.
