Rubio: Young Americans today are behind their peers 20 years ago.
In his first speech after the mid-term elections, the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, admitted that the American people are in trouble and said that young Americans today are behind their peers 20, 30 and 40 years ago.
In this speech, the US Secretary of State defended the Trump administration's policies in various areas; including the sinking of alleged drug-trafficking boats, the arrest of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, and an aggressive crackdown on immigrants. He also defended the war in Iran, saying that "Tehran's military build-up should have been dealt with" and that the Iranian regime was behind "every major problem in the Middle East". Rubio defined the victory in Iran as follows: "They will never have nuclear weapons."
