He doesn't want to be shown on camera as the delegates remove trump.
total bullshit excuse that he cannot take 2 days out of his schedule to make a CLE appearance - in july - because he has an election to win, all the way in Nov.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) will not attend the Republican National Convention this month, reversing previous plans and joining a growing list of vulnerable Republicans who have shied away from the event where the GOP is expected to officially nominate Donald Trump for president.
In a statement explaining his decision, Rubio spokeswoman Olivia Perez-Cubas cited a need to campaign at home as the main reason. She made no mention of Trump.
“Florida has always been a competitive state and it will be this fall,” Perez-Cubas said in the statement issued Wednesday. “Marco had planned to go to the convention before he decided to seek re-election. Since Marco got into the race late, he will be in Florida campaigning and meeting with voters instead of going to Ohio.”
Rubio ended his campaign for president in March after getting badly beaten by Trump in the Florida primary and spending weeks clashing with him personally in the campaign.
