Floridians have long loved publicly shaming the state’s governor and current GOP Senate nominee, Rick Scott (and other members of his Cabinet). It happened again Monday, with a large crowd yelling at Scott and reportedly forcing him to leave a campaign event at a restaurant in Venice, Florida after just 10 minutes.
Scott has been a decided foe of many environmental protection efforts as governor, and many voters in the state blame him for the crippling red tide currently plaguing Florida’s west coast.
