Marco Rubio clashed with Congressman Ted Lieu over claims that President Donald Trump was asleep during a December cabinet meeting. During a hearing, Lieu showed video footage of Trump allegedly asleep next to Rubio.

In response, Rubio said the claim was "false" and that "the guy doesn't sleep, which is a big problem because he calls me at 2 in the morning."
