He might have caught flak but he's in a safe district, and the fact that he had people removed shows he's more about order than listening. He does 'removal theater' to demonstrate what happens to those who challenge his party.
His district's only 22% Democratic, most of whom are probably in its cities of Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, and Sanibel. He can hold town halls because he doesn't have to care.
