US Republican presidential contender Marco Rubio has denounced former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as “a defender of the status quo”.
In an interview with Fox News on Sunday, Rubio said Democratic presidential candidate Clinton was not suitable for the White House because she would continue President Barack Obama’s failed policies.
“This is not a time for the status quo,” Rubio declared. “She’s a defender of the status quo in a time when we need transformation in our policies.”
Rubio also slammed Clinton and her husband, former US President Bill Clinton, over their scandalous past.
“There seems to be this cloud of constant scandal and things that distract us from the core issues of the moment,” he said of how people in the US viewed the Clintons.
Last month, the first-term senator from Florida called Clinton a leader from the past whose time is over.
