Politics Expert: Is Rubio Engaged In 'Conspiracy Theory Mongering' That Might Lead To Violence? - ReidOut



On Sunday, Marco Rubio claimed that one of his canvassers was attacked by "four animals" who told him Republicans were not allowed in their Florida neighborhood. Yet, the police report makes no mention of a political dispute, nor does it indicate that the canvasser was targeted for being a Republican. Additionally, this canvasser, Christopher Monzon, is a far-right activist who attended the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville. Fernand R. Amandi, an expert in Florida politics, joins Joy Reid with his analysis. - Aired on 10/26/2022.

I cannot believe the number of Zeldin signs I see in my travels. Do people really know who this is?? I had no idea, had to look him up, and I pay attention. Apparently he's an extreme RW congressman from way downstate (the most conservative district in the state) who is challenging the governor...

But I heard tonight on the local (Albany) news that the polls are "close!" Who, except those from his district, has ever heard of this guy?? But I see his signs all over the place! And this district is as far north as you can get. I obviously pay attention, but I'd never even heard of him before!

This is the campaign for governor.

On edit: Speaking of which, I just saw a campaign ad for him on the TV.
