There was no narrative through-line to Rubio's attacks on Trump. It was just a disjointed oppo-dump. Easy to fend off.

By throwing the kitchen sink at the eleventh hour, each individual allegation loses valence.
-
What if Rubio & Cruz had spent a week hammering Trump U. in, say, October? Followed by a week on Polish workers, then a week on tax returns?
-
That would've created a real characterological "narrative" problem for Trump. But the GOP's collective action deficiency precluded this.
-
So they have only themselves to blame. That they kept on the "inconsistent conservative" angle until TODAY shows how deluded they were/are.
