<p>“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,” <a href="https://twitter.com/marcorubio/status/1584564895605198849">Rubio tweeted on Monday</a>. “He suffered internal bleeding, a broken jaw & will need facial reconstructive surgery[.]”</p>
