President Trump did an interview with Bill O’Reilly scheduled to be released today where he excuses Vladimir Putin being, in the words of O’Reilly, “a killer.”

I detailed some of it here including the astonishing number of Russian journalists who have been murdered since Putin came to power.

Senator Marco Rubio has apparently seen the snippet of the interview because he had this to say to President Trump via Twitter:

When has a Democratic political activists been poisoned by the GOP, or vice versa? We are not the same as #Putin. MR

Oof. 

He is right. Chances are, we’ll see the President respond in kind. I wonder of the “Little Marco” nickname makes a comeback.
