It’s Rubio!

As Hurricane Ian approaches landfall in Florida, it appears that Marco Rubio has sent a fundraising pitch. At least one user has suspected being in the contact list of Marco Rubio’s campaign.

It looks like the crusade against the “Marxist misfits” and “radical leftists” that are supporting Democrat Val Demings is more pertinent to Rubio than the fact that southwestern Florida is about to be hit by a hurricane that is just short of Category 5.

x Man of the people, populist Marco Rubio, says unlike Pete Buttigieg, he is focused on real problems: “I’m not gonna focus on the agenda dictated by a bunch of affluent, elitist liberals, and a bunch of Marxist misfits.” pic.twitter.com/BnPUGmzyKd — Ron Filipkowski 🇺🇦 (@RonFilipkowski) July 25, 2022

Her vision is whatever they tell her the vision needs to be on the far left. She's going to vote with them 100% of the time. What vision is that? It's a vision that will destroy this country. Voting in favor of allowing schools to indoctrinate children and turn boys into girls. It's the theory of allowing the country to be overrun. Our border, it's not even immigration- this is a mass-migration catastrophe. It's that vision. And if anybody criticizes you, you either criminalize political opposition or you call people racists or fascists or whatever -ists they can come up with. That's their vision. That's what she's done in her time in the House, that's what she’s voted for, that's what she'll vote for if she gets in the Senate. They are one vote away in the Senate from passing anything they want – they will get rid of the filibuster and pack the Supreme Court, they'll take over elections from the federal level. They'll spend $4 trillion, not just $800 billion. They will destroy America if we don’t stop them.

Some commentators on Twitter are scratching their heads over Marco Rubio promoting his own website on CNN; apparently, Rubio states that the website contains crucial resources and information involving Hurricane Ian.

x I am nauseated watching climate denier Little Marco Rubio on CNN expressing his concern about the hurricane and touting his own websites. Hypocrite of the first order. — Norman Ornstein (@NormOrnstein) September 28, 2022

And some people have not forgotten that Marco is a nope on funds for Hurricane Sandy victims.

#OnlyMarco! Okay, maybe not.
