Marco Rubio has reportedly turned down the prestigious role of Secretary of State to become the CEO of Geico, sources have confirmed.
The surprising career pivot comes after Rubio claimed he could save more American dollars in car insurance than in foreign policy.
“Who needs international diplomacy when you can offer 15% or more savings on car insurance?” Rubio quipped during his unexpected announcement. He highlighted his passion for fiscal responsibility and his belief that helping Americans save money at home was more urgent than negotiating overseas.
Rubio’s move has stunned political circles and delighted the marketing team at Geico, who have hailed him as the “savior of savings.” Meanwhile, his political adversaries have criticized the decision as a blatant “cash grab,” more about personal profit than public service.
The Florida senator, however, remains unfazed by the critiques, asserting that his new role will leverage his policy expertise to “cut through government red tape, one auto insurance policy at a time.”
As of press time, Rubio was seen rehearsing with the famous Geico gecko, preparing for his first commercial debut, which insiders claim involves a lot of pointing at percentages and nodding emphatically about deductible options.
