florida senator marco rubio has been tipped to replace antony blinken as secretary of state — america's he currently serves on the senate intelligence committee and foreign relations committee. rubio and trump were opponents in the 2016 nomination race — but a bitter rivalry dissolved and he eventually endorsed and campaigned for the president—elect in 202a. on that, let's speak now to the former chief of staff for marco rubio's presidential campaign — matt terrill. thank you for being with us. your reaction to marco rubio's appointment. what will it mean? it is a great pick and one that makes sense and certainly he is a qualified individualfor the role, somebody who will be able to come are present trump with his agenda here in his presidency. if we look at his appointment and other appointments, the records of statesmen, and inform policy. then again, these individuals join the cabinet, bottom line, they will bejoining join the cabinet, bottom line, they will be joining present trump's agenda, and will be doing more with his agenda, rather than the other way around. particularly looki

marco rubio's portfolio in china goes back years. he has drawn attention to china trade practices, he has pushed for restrictions on selling advanced technology to china, he has highlighted mass incarceration and forced labor, as well as china's intelligence gathering, he has a deep and long resume on china. and listen, it shouldn't be surprising considering trump himself has made china a target of his national security and economic policies, the significant tariffs on chinese goods, and this would bring to his team individuals with history, and a focus on china. i will say this as well, given the concern about trumps foreign policy positions, particularly among immigrants, the biden administration, and more traditional republicans, both marco rubio and walls are not out there, as it were. physicians on china are very common with other republicans, and the bipartisan position in washington, a far more aggressive policy as far as national security and trade. positions on ukraine, marco rubio has been a skeptic of additional aid going

marco rubio is a former client of susie wiles. they are very close and she was lobbying very hard for him to be vice president for the running mate position and she lost that one. i think this time she put her foot down. >> florida is being represented quite strongly in the picks today. i mean the question tara asked was a good one. how is marco rubio any different from a nikki haley or mike pompeo with foreign policy? >> he's a lot different. number one, he campaigned hard for donald trump and did so without any reservation whatsoever. i think he gave one of the best speeches at the convention. he was out there fighting for donald trump every single day. number two, the experience matters. he brings a ton of experience into this specific position and number three, let's remember these people are not being picked to execute their foreign policy. they're being picked to execute donald trump's foreign policy. whatever views you bring into one of these jobs, you're expected to execute donald trump's vision for the role and obviously

their relationship with them, marco rubio ran against him in 2016. people of his stature other folks for terry of defense, jody earns possibly, because you have those relationships. also, two things . marco is one of the leaders want really being hawkish me taking on china directly, understanding the threat he poses, it is a bad day to be in beijing now if you are one of the ccp leaders. >> and incoming national security advisor, michael waltz hold similar views. it is worth noting the relationship rubio and trump have had over the years. they ran against each other in 2016, during that time, trump once tweeted, marco rubio is a total lightweight i would not hire to run one of my smaller companies. i think we have this to put on the screen. a highly overrated politician. marco rubio, went on a rant about donald trump's fingers. listen . >> which is why i don't understand why his hands are the signs size of someone who is 5'2". have you seen his hands? you know what they say about men with small hands? you can't trust them. >> all right. it just had t

>> the pick of marco rubio for my standpoint is a little reassuring. though i think that there was such conflict between rubio and trump in the early days of their relationship. i have known senator rubio. he has a great experience in the intelligence community. and seems to be someone i think democrats could work with this administration. i'm very concerned with congressman walz. a trump loyalist. and kristi nome with no experience with homeland security. it is very disturbing i think for everyone who believes that the system ought to be actually fixed. rather than simply a draconian round them up and throw them out the way that steve miller seems to want to control the immigration system in this country. >> and the president will be walking with several more senators. there is some consternation with capitol hill about the narrow majority he is named two house republicans from safe seats. it takes a while to hold special elections. so they are reducing by two which could be a majority in single numbers. >> sure. as donald trump meets with house repub

what the significance of a marco rubio would be. >> cateland puts china at the center of trump's foreign policy. the combination of rubio and walls. both of who are big china hawks. he's drawn attention to china's trade practices. he's pushed for restrictions on selling advanced technology to china. he's highlighted china's mass incarceration. as well as china's intelligence gathering. he has a deep and long resume on china. and listen, shouldn't be surprising given that trump himself of course has made china a target both of his national security policy but also with economic policy. the discussions during the campaign of imposing significant tariffs on chinese goods. and, to his team, in rubio and a walls two individuals with history there and focus on china. i'll say this as well. given the concern about some of trump's foreign policy positions, particularly among democrats, the outgoing biden administration and some democrats, i think it's safe to say that both rubio and walls are not out there. that their positions on china are very common with other republicans but it's a bipartisa

so yes, marco rubio will be confirmed easily. listen, jose, the reality is this, despite trump talking about these recess appointments that he's been talking about somewhat quizzically, i don't really see right now anybody that has been mentioned for a confirmable position, meaning one that has to go through the senate. i don't see any of them having problems. in a 53-seat republican majority in the senate, i don't see anybody whether it's rubio or kristi noem having any sort of problems. so i don't know, you know, i don't know why he's talking about recess appointments when he has a large senate majority, a large republican senate majority. >> yeah. annie, i was just thinking back on your comment about how the republican party and much of its leaders have had to, you know, shape shift over the years, annie. i'm just thinking and of course this would not, it would not be under his responsibilities, but marco rubio at one time was a part of the gang of eight that in the senate tried to have comprehensive immigration reform that pa

marco rubio, the republican savior. that was when he was on his own, he was thought of as not a shoe in for 2016 before trump came on the scene but a very strong contender. then 2016 happened and well let's just roll the tape. >> have you seen his hands, they are like this, and you know what they say about men with small hands. >> when it'll marco spews his crap about the size of my hands, which are big. >> after a long and spirited primary, the time for fighting each other is over. >> leading us will be a man all the wounded and facing danger, he stood up and raised his fist and reminded us that our people in our country are always worth fighting for. >> so the ark is very telling. >> marco rubio learned a lot from 2016, his own defeat and learned a lot from trump's victory and when you talk to senators around town, we talk to senior staffers may say rubio when you look at that core class of 2016 or even 2010, he probably learned the most and changed the most. he was your traditional republican at the time, a chamber o

matt terrill is the former chief of staff for marco rubio's presidential campaign. o as a competent and loyal pick by donald trump. it's a great pick. it's a pick that makes sense, and certainly i think it's a pick that many people would say is not only a qualified individual for the role, but somebody who will be, you know, loyal to president trump, his agenda, in his mission here going into his presidency. and i think largely speaking, you're going to have some who will look at his appointment or other appointments and look at their records and background and statements, mainly on foreign policy, but then at the end of the day, as these individuals join the cabinet, such as senator rubio and other individuals join the cabinet, bottom line is they're but the most controversial of all his appointments so far is matt gaetz. former republican congresswoman barbara comstock told the bbc mr gaetz is "wholly and dangerously unqualified" to be attorney general after being nominated for the role by president—elect donald trump yesterday.

i sat with marco rubio days before his campaign ended in 2016. i interviewed him in florida, their shared state. rubio said most countries around the world that are failures are failures because they deposit their hopes in a person. a strong leader who comes forward and says put me in power. that is exactly what he is doing. the rhetoric reminds me of third world strong men. that was marco rubio in 2016. and i vividly remember conducting this interview with him. he was practically vibrating with indignation. that's how strongly he felt donald trump would be a disaster as u.s. president. >> i covered a few of his rallies. the other, he was a good speaker. but, nothing he said was going to convince a lot of those people not to back donald trump. very few people had heard of kristi noem until the controversy of her shooting her dog. she joins h list of loyalist hard liners. all of them have been very clear about wanting to lead a push against illegal migrants. talk about her and what she brings to this mix. >> it is a lot clearer on the immigration s

republican from florida who is somebody who is a strong china hawk speaking out against china and marco rubio who we believe will be offered secretary of state if everything holds and again, donald trump nothing is official until it is and also a big china hawk an indication of the direction he wants to go in particularly when it comes to one of his campaign promises which is being incredibly hard on china and the interesting thing about marco rubio and mike walz to some extent, he has seen a more adaptive approach to donald trump and gone a little further with them but marco rubio himself is not known as an isolation list and american first policy in kind of a globalist in terms of who is up for secretary of state so how that plays out in donald trump's administration is something we have questions about. >> what about the announcement today which isn't official or which is official unlike the rubio one which is coming but hasn't yet but the official announcement of the u.s. ambassador to israel? >> it sends a strong message to benjamin netanyahu which builds are in -- donald trump once to b

one name more familiar than the other, marco rubio. secretary of state is hugely important, what does it signal? >> rubio has been outspoken, but he is known as the connection to the latino vote and this is important because he hails from florida weather is a major cuban population. he had his own run for president, when he was brought in to work with trump and they have allied in that way it was to tackle the border. now he's talking about china and since he has been sanctioned by beijing after years of harsh comments, it creates an amps up anti-china rhetoric. tom: indeed. china will have to work out a solution. see and then reporting that trump has pricked -- or picked kristi noem. kristi noem been picked as homeland secretary for the trump administration. talk us through a name that will be less familiar which is michael waltz. >> he is tough on china. the people being picked have that stance and not just mike, it is the u.n. ambassador, a senator from new york, her name is police and it is important to keep this in mind because he

make the case for marco rubio as secretary of state for donald trump. >> marco rubio has been a senator 14 years and ranking member of the intelligence committee and privy to our nation's most guarded secrets in that role. i think he is seen as a future player on that. you may not like his politics and democrats may not be happy with his politics, but, you know, ultimately donald trump needs a secretary of state and within the foreign policy establishment in washington, the reasoning has been that marco rubio is someone who understands the rules of the game, knows who the players are, and is kind of a serious enough operator that he is not going to go out there and embarrass himself if he has to, you know, move too far in one direction towards donald trump to please the boss. and so i think, you know, kind of given the ven diagram between the parties and what we agree are national security parties, rubio is a i think will make people who didn't sleep better at night for having donald trump at the till. >> what will him, ashleyly? >> no he is like a lot of these picks is incredibly close
