Marco Rubio reveals his secret weapon: Donald Trump’s ‘small hands’

After months of playing nice, Marco Rubio has finally turned on his Republican candidate rival Donald Trump. After criticising Trump for his approach to business during the CNN debate, Rubio has now gone one step further and gone after his manhood.

Speaking to his supporters at a rally, the Florida senator appeared to take aim at the size of Trump’s hands… and manhood:

‘He’s always calling me “little Marco”. I’ll admit he’s taller than me. He’s like 6’2’’, which is why I don’t understand why his hands are the size of someone who’s 5’2’’. Have you seen his hands? And you know what they say about men with small hands?’

As Rubio’s supporters began to roar with laughter as they clocked what he was referring to, Rubio attempted some last minute damage limitation:

‘You can’t trust ’em!’

Rubio also took aim at Trump’s tanned appearance by claiming he would make America orange, rather than great… and there was Mr S thinking UK politics could be naff.
