Marco Rubio was a puddle of sweat as Val Demings mopped the floor with him during last night’s debate
Marco Rubio and Val Demings faced off last night in the Florida U.S. Senate debate that literally ended with the anti-LGBTQ lawmaker wiping the sweat from his forehead with a damp handkerchief while she received thunderous applause from the crowd.The 60-minute broadcast was the only scheduled debate between the two candidates and covered a wide range of topics, from gun control to abortion rights to the economy and immigration reform.Demings tore into Rubio about his response to the Pulse nightclub shooting and his record on gun control…Demings: You used the Pulse nightclub shooting as your inspiration to run again in 2016 and yet you’ve done nothing..
