🇺🇲 US Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in Delhi and asked, "Where is everyone?" At the airport, he was only greeted by the commander of his own plane, and not a single Indian government official came to meet him.

(4,241 posts)He is the NSA and Sec of State, and with Tulsi Gabbard gone Rubio is probably the entire diplomatic and intelligence operation in government.
Which is scary.
Because he's dumb.

On second thought, he would get them hired into this "administration."

(53,404 posts)Marco Rubio experienced some unfortunate technical difficulties while delivering a speech to top diplomats in India.
The secretary of states remarks at the Quad foreign ministers meetingtalks featuring the foreign ministers of Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S.were hampered on Tuesday when Rubios microphone failed to work properly.
After frantically fiddling with the mic in an attempt to get it working, Rubio carried on with his speech undeterred, even though his remarks were not being transmitted properly.
U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor, who was seated next to Rubio at the meeting, came to his rescue by pressing a button at the base of the microphone to turn it on.
