'Cult Warning': Marco Rubio Criticized For Excessive Praise of Trump

Secretary of State Marco Rubio faced a wave of online mockery after making a questionable statement about President Donald Trump. The controversy erupted on Wednesday, when the State Department announced it was renaming the former Institute of Peace to the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace, saying the change was meant to reflect the greatest dealmaker in our nations history.

Rubio promoted the renaming on his social media account, enthusiastically asserting that President Trump will be remembered by history as the President of Peace and insisting the department should acknowledge that legacy. His remarks immediately drew widespread skepticism and criticism.

Many users on social media interpreted Rubios message as evidence of excessive devotion to Trump, especially in light of the presidents recent decision to rebrand the Department of Defense as the Department of War. The contrast sparked extensive ridicule, with commenters pointing out the inconsistency between Trumps rhetoric and his actions.

Some questioned how Rubio had become so eager to praise the president, while others joked that Trump might indeed seem peaceful only because he frequently appears disengaged or inattentive during official duties.
