trump accuses Rubio of being ‘a disaster with his credit cards’
As Marco Rubio has slowly gained traction in early polls, especially after his well-received debate performance last week, Donald Trump has ratcheted up his criticism of the senator from Florida. On Tuesday, Trump called Rubio "overrated" and raised questions about the senator's personal finances.
"All you have to do is look at his credit card — I mean, he's a disaster with his credit cards," Trump said during a news conference on Tuesday morning at Trump Tower. "For years I've been hearing that his credit cards are a disaster.... He certainly lives above his means, there's no question about that."
rubio made $174,000 as a U.S. senator last year, in addition to more than $50,000 in book royalties, a university teaching position and a rental property. Yet, that same year, he cashed out nearly $70,000 in retirement funds. Rubio, 44, the son of a bartender and a maid, has defended himself against accusations that he is reckless with money, saying that he had to take out loans to pay for school and is now raising a young family.
