Over the past several days, Marco Rubio has taken some ribbing and scorn for repeating himself at last weekend’s debate. Vox was among many media outlets who made stories out of it:
- 8:30 pm: “And let’s dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing.”
- 8:32 pm: “Let’s dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing.”
- 8:34 pm: “This notion that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing is just not true. He knows exactly what he’s doing.”
Earlier today, Team Hillary got in on the action and took a thinly veiled shot at him with this:
Let's dispel with this fiction that @POTUS doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. https://t.co/DQ4HHj9kXZ

Rubio didn’t seem terribly fazed by it:
Rubio responds to Clinton tweet: "Let's dispel another notion, that she's even qualified to be POTUS"

Well, dang.
He then tweeted this:
.@HillaryClinton knew exactly what she was doing and the FBI would like to know too https://t.co/CVPE78qV2T https://t.co/X5gc39keBk

But not everyone was feeling Rubio’s burn:
@marcorubio @HillaryClinton Haha, Hillary burned you.
Stick a fork in Marcobot. He’s done.
