Marco Rubio Canvasser Brutally Assaulted and Hospitalized, Senator Says
25th October 2022
“Last night, one of our canvassers wearing my T-shirt and a DeSantis hat was brutally attacked by 4 animals who told him Republicans weren’t allowed in their neighborhood in #Hialeah #Florida,” Rubio posted Monday on Twitter. “He suffered internal bleeding, a broken jaw & will need facial reconstructive surgery.”
My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.
President Joe Biden, Democrats, and the media have escalated attacks against Republicans since the Aug. 8 raid on Mar-a-Lago, the Florida estate owned by former President Donald Trump.
Biden labeled Trump’s supporters “a threat to democracy” during a Sept. 1 speech in Philadelphia, while Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, urged America to “kill and confront” a movement he described as “extremist” during a Sept. 13 appearance on MSNBC.
An 83-year-old woman campaigning against Proposal 3 in Michigan was shot in the back Sept. 20 while passing out campaign literature. In North Dakota, a man accused of running down 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson on Sept. 18 reportedly claimed the teen was a “Republican extremist.”
