Marco Rubio’s Cutthroat Team

Sen. Marco Rubio has a campaign manager who describes politics as a “knife fight,” BuzzFeed News reports.

“With fewer than 100 days to go until the Iowa caucuses, Republican campaigns are bracing for a new, survival-of-the-fittest phase to take hold in the 2016 primary race, as presidential predators seek frantically to claw their way up the food chain, and devour each other along the way. For all Rubio’s talk of wanting to stay above of the fray, the candidate has surrounded himself with political operatives known for thriving in the most viciously Darwinian races.”
