    I didn't say he was avoiding red Latinos, I'm correctly saying that the operations are disproportionately targeting areas that lean Democratic.

    What? I'm not saying Latinos are disproportionately in Democratic areas, I'm saying that the areas being targeted disproportionately lean farther toward Democrats regardless of whether they are more or less Latino. I'm saying this is being used as a tool to punish less conservative areas, I'm not trying to argue that Latinos in Florida are concentrated in Democratic-leaning places.

    Okay, or you could just try basic reading comprehension. I feel like this isn't hard. Authoritarians siccing their goon squad on areas that aren't supportive isn't exactly a difficult concept to grasp and it's one of the oldest tricks in the dictators' book.
