Now watch Rubio doing his Harpo imitation:

7:56 PM PT: So, yes, Marco Rubio proved you can manage to swallow just fine, but choke all the same.

Christoph Waltz hosting with musical guest Alabama Shakes. It's a shame Jimmy Fallon is gone as I think he would make a good Rube-o, though he would probably ruin the sketch by laughing.
