Marco Rubio tried to explain why Iranian politics are a mess and walked strait into a self-own for the ages
The billionaires living in Washington, DC running the country (into the ground) have a firm grasp of exactly what the people they are governing care about.
Just ask Marco Rubio.
The US Secretary of State was asked for his thoughts on Iran. When he responded, he broke down a major problem in any sovereign nation when the government and the nation’s people don’t see eye to eye.

I don’t know of any country in the world where there’s a bigger difference between the people and the people who run the country. pic.twitter.com/ptGoGsp9Xe

Rubio might be on to something here. Unfortunately, his complete lack of awarness is preventing him from addressing this problem a little closer to home.
There was no shortage of retorts calling out the obvious.

Marco: I don’t know of any country in the world where there’s a bigger difference between the people and the people who run the country.
America: We’re starving and can’t afford gasoline.
Marco: But you’re gonna love Donald’s Billion Dollar Ballroom.

Someone should explain to Sec. Rubio how much of his administration’s agenda is absolutely hated by the American people.
