Rubio: Obama's ISIS Response 'Presidential Malpractice' that Damaged US Reputation for Generations

Sunday on CBS’ “Face The Nation” Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) hammered President Barack Obama’s response to the growing threat of ISIS calling it “presidential malpractice.”

The Florida senator said, “I’m going to say something I don’t say lightly. I believe this president has committed presidential malpractice in foreign policy. Exhibit A is what he’s done with the Middle East. He ran for office under the notion that our national interests in the Middle East were to disengage as quickly as possible and disentangle from the region, and that has been chaotic, led toe series of policy pronouncements and words that he is saying whether ISIS was the JV, setting red lines that weren’t in forced. All those things have been dramatically counter productive.”

“I think it has created some generational and reputational damage to the United States of great significance.” he added.
