Marco Rubio (R-FL) drew a stark contrast between himself and his potential Democrat Senate challenger Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) \u2014 whom he noted has voted alongside House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) \u201c100 percent of the time\u201d in the House \u2014 on Monday during a press conference, where 55 Florida sheriffs endorsed his reelection campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Flanked by several law enforcement officers who offered the Florida senator their endorsement, Rubio outlined what is at stake in the upcoming midterm election, as \u201cChuck Schumer\u2019s hand-picked candidate\u201d Val Demings has aligned herself with the effort to call into question the work law enforcement is doing, despite her own 27-year tenure serving in law enforcement.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s at stake with law and order is what\u2019s at stake broadly. When you talk about these Senate races, it\u2019s not just about who you\u2019re electing to the Senate. It\u2019s whose lead will they follow when they get to Washington?\u201d he said, noting the power struggle in the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChuck Schumer, frankly is one vote away. He just needs one \u2014 if I were not in this position and one of my opponents like Val Demings was, you\u2019d never hear the name Joe Manchin. You never would have heard the name Kyrsten Sinema, because Chuck Schumer would have 51 votes, and with those 51 votes, he can pass anything he wants, which includes codifying socialism in our laws through what they called Build Back Better,\u201d Rubio said, noting he called it \u201cBuild Back Socialist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>By codifying into law the changes we\u2019ve talked about here today. Police officers across this county and law enforcement officials would be getting sued in court. So every time they\u2019re out there responding to a call two things are on their mind. Am I going to make it? Am I going to live? And am I going to get sued afterwards? And I have to make that decision in a millisecond. So that would become the law in this country. We would basically have a county that codifies open borders where you can come here illegally and stay without any consequence. And the list goes on.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">Rubio said Schumer&nbsp;ultimately wants Demings as the next senator&nbsp;because she has \u201cvoted with Nancy P<\/span>elosi 100 percent of the time in the House.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16543406\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16543406\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Rubio.jpg\" alt=\"Sen.

If you want Nancy Pelosi to be your next U.S. senator, you have a candidate running that\u2019s perfect.
