Many prominent neocon Rubio supporters later acquired positions in the Trump administration, and used those positions to sabotage his agenda from within. These people included [[Nikki_Haley|Nikki Haley]] and [[Mike_Pompeo|Mike Pompeo]]. It is unknown what role -- if any -- Rubio himself played in said sabotage, but the fact that said saboteurs all supported him in 2016 cannot be ignored.
