Makes some sense that you might string Rubio along for his vote on Scott( which he is unlikely to back away from either way) and his votes on future matters. Although you can’t leave him feeling OK about Trump if he is hung out there and gets an eventual rug pull.
Even if Rubio gets it, the State Department, can be isolated from the main decision making process. Trump can run foreign policy out of the White House, while Rubio jets around the world having meetings. I can’t stand Rubio, but this could be a reward for coming to Trump early and staying in line.
If Elon and Musk are to be believed, Rubio’s job at State might be to reduce the staff by eighty percent! It’s a nest of no talent, uppity climbers anyway.

Rubio playing along risks his standing in Senate circles.
Although everyone should understand the game here.
