Marco Rubio is reporting today that one of his canvassaers, who he says was wearing a Rubo t-shirt and a DeSatnis hat was brutally attacked last night.
According to Rubio it was four ‘animals’, persumably violent leftists, who told the canvasser that Republicans weren’t allowed in the neighborood:

Here’s a few responses to the attack from the right…
Absolutely horrific. Violence has NO PLACE in politics.
Heidi and I are praying for his swift recovery. https://t.co/to3sNfaBPn

100% certainty that this won’t be on CNN today.
Is there a GoFundMe for him? Happy to chip in… https://t.co/87ip3nHEth

Much of the left, however, are accusing him of lying about it…
Pls share the police report / witness statements. Would love to hear what actually happened, as I suspect it wasn’t this https://t.co/QC6VMHGRbg

That… does not sound like a believable story.
That said, such violence isn't justified, and I hope the aggressors are caught, whatever their motives actually were.

And some are celebrating or justifying it…
Surprise surprise. Little Marco is lying AGAIN. https://t.co/tP3yetE754
