Rubio Talks Military While Supporting SC Republicans

The Charlotte Observer reports on Florida Sen. Marco Rubio visit to support South Carolina Republicans: “On foreign policy, Rubio echoed previous comments by Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., deploring cuts to the American military.”  

“‘When America steps back from the national stage, it is chaos,’ Rubio said, adding that international conflicts need reasoned intervention. ‘Does that mean that we should be involved in every conflict? Of course not. … Only America can play that role. In the absence of us playing that role, no one does, and crisis ensues.'”
