“On the evening of February 21,2018, he was viciously dunked on to death on national TV by his teenage constituents.”
After a brutal appearance Wednesday night at a televised Q&A on gun violence, the internet pronounced Sen. Marco Rubio dead.
According to Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit, the NRA-backed politician passed away Feb. 21 in Miami.
The cause? “CNN Town Hall.”
In Sunrise, Fla., about an hour away from where he was declared Wiki-perished, Rubio got publicly excoriated by survivors of the Parkland, Fla., school massacre and those whose family members weren’t fortunate enough to leave Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School with their lives, as they called him out for doing nothing to try to stem the nation’s ongoing epidemic of mass murder and for his refusal to stop taking money from gun lobbyists.

“So right now, in the name of 17 people, you cannot ask the NRA to keep their money out of your campaign?” said 17-year-old Stoneman Douglas junior Cameron Kasky.
“I will always accept the help from anyone who agrees with my agenda,” Rubio responded.
The revision was made just hours after the Jake Tapper-hosted event, with the opening paragraph of the Florida senator’s Wikipedia page being changed to read: “Marco Antonio Rubio (born May 28,1971) is an American politician, attorney and the junior United States Senator for Florida. A Republican Party member, he was previously Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives. On the evening of February 21,2018, he was viciously dunked on to death on national TV by his teenage constituents.”
However, while he was “viciously dunked on,” the Daily News can confirm Rubio very much survived the evening, as evidenced by his tweet shortly after the event, in which he defiantly maintained, “Banning all semi-auto weapons may have been popular with the audience at #CNNTownHall, but it is a position well outside the mainstream.”

Exactly half of the country supports a nationwide ban on the sale of assault weapons, according to a Washington Post/ABC News poll published Tuesday.
