— -- Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio met one of his biggest criticisms during the GOP debate again...and again...and again.

"And let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing," Rubio said.

“Let's dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing,” Rubio said a second time.

When Rubio started the line again, Christie pointed out the repeated comments: “There it is. The memorized 25-second speech.”

But that didn't stop the Florida senator from completing the line a third time: “We are not facing a president that doesn't know what he's doing. He knows what he is doing.”

Later on, Trump pushed back at Rubio: “I disagree, respectfully, with Marco,” he said. “I think we have a president who, as a president, is totally incompetent and he doesn't know what he's doing.”

But Rubio wasn't done. He made the statement a fourth time. “I think anyone who believes that Barack Obama isn't doing what he's doing on purpose doesn't understand what we're dealing with here, okay?” Rubio said.
