Rubio, Miami Mayor Slam Psaki for Claiming ‘Disinformation’ Caused Hispanics to Vote Red in Florida

'Republicans gaining with Hispanics is not just big for Miami-Dade County, for Florida, it's big for the United States... '

(Headline USA) Miami Mayor Francis Suarez and Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., slammed former White House press secretary Jen Psaki this week for claiming that Hispanic voters in Florida turned out in record numbers for Republicans because of “disinformation.”

Psaki claimed in a tweet on Tuesday night that “disinformation” within Latino media is to blame for Rubio and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s crushing victory in once-blue counties like Miami-Dade County.

“The Latino vote is not the same everywhere! There are huge generational differences and in Florida population of older voters (more likely Rs) much larger than younger,” she wrote. “Socialism does not play there. And there is a massive disinformation problem in Spanish language media.”

Suarez responded to Psaki’s comment by ripping Democrats as out of touch.

“Democrats are in denial,” Suarez told Fox News on Wednesday. “They’re in denial because they first tried to brand all Hispanics as LatinX. That didn’t work. That sort of monolithic brand didn’t stick. People don’t like it.”

Rubio also took a shot at Psaki, joking that he hopes “Democrats will keep following the advice of people like this lady.”

According to Suarez, the reason so many Hispanics turned out for Republicans in Florida is because they appealed to them on the issues that matter most: the economy and their families.

“Republicans gaining with Hispanics is not just big for Miami-Dade County, for Florida, it’s big for the United States,” he explained.

“It’s a template for success for Republican elections for a generation nationally, and I think if we continue to communicate and connect with Hispanics, it could mean a tremendous amount in terms of… not just winning elections, but creating prosperity for our country and governing from the principles that… are the basis of Republican elected officials and Republican politics.”
