Even after telling Florida Senator Marco Rubio that he had the “breakout performance of the night” during Wednesday’s Republican debate, on Thursday’s NBC Today, co-host Savannah Guthrie urged the GOP presidential candidate to resign from the U.S. Senate: “...once and for all, answer The Sun Sentinel’s question, should you resign, would you resign? Why not leave your Senate seat and just remove this issue from your opponents, remove it from the discourse?”
Rubio dismissed the notion: “Well, for me, it's an incredible honor to serve in the United States Senate and I enjoy very much to serve the people of Florida. And for me, for example, we serve real people every day....I enjoy that very much and we enjoy doing that service and we're going to continue to do it.”
