Source:Huff Post
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) was ripped Monday on Twitter after he criticized the Democratic National Convention for having actor and activist Eva Longoria host the event.
Brilliant move! No one is more in touch with the challenges & obstacles faced by everyday Americans than actors & celebrities, Rubio tweeted alongside a video of Longoria emceeing the event.
Longoria, known best for her role on Desperate Housewives, has a long-running history of political activism, philanthropy and advocacy for disadvantaged groups. Shes been a vocal advocate of political issues faced by Latino communities and in 2012 created the Eva Longoria Foundation to help Latino families through education and entrepreneurship. She was also a top fundraiser for former President Barack Obama and national co-chair of his 2012 reelection campaign. Shes spoken at the last two Democratic National Conventions, in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2012 and Philadelphia in 2016. She also co-founded the Latino Victory Fund, an organization that works to build Latino representation in politics, which was the first national Latino group to endorse Joe Biden for president.
The tweet responses rip Marco Rubio new one. The BEST ONE was...You literally elected a Reality TV star to be the President, one critic shot back at the Republican senator.

Aside from looks she was spot on. Hosting a live show is one thing. Doing it without ANY feedback or playing off someone is another unseen ballgame.
Rubio must have been the only one they thought could attack her.

I adore her.
