President Donald Trump fired off a midnight tweet mocking Beto O’Rourke’s “phony” nickname “to indicate Hispanic heritage,” to which the former congressman quickly responded.
Beto needs to come out swinging even more than in past few days. It’s long past time for being PC. His campaign is polling at 2%? Perfect time to set the stage as the tell it like it is firebrand to take over Cornyn’s seat while shoving a fistful of reality down Donnie Moscow’s throat.
I don’t think that Beto is yet ‘presidential timber’… but he is the perfect person to go after tRump, and I hope he jumps in with both feet during tRumps visit.
Indeed we need Alan Grayson /Anthony Weiner level of outrage( sans baggage of course)
It cost Hillary the election
She should have labeled him a creepy old man the minute he started stalking her in the debate
We need to leave “polite” behind
Every appearance should be a confrontation
He doesn’t deserve respect
Nice guys finish last
thrump is going to have a motorcade arrival and departure from El Paso. That is a city with a population of 800, 000 people with a surrounding community of a couple million, I believe. I’d love them all to turn out along the motorcade route with an abundance of vegetables, eggs and bags of manure and in their most vitriolic voices tell him to go the fuck back to where he came from.
This is the perfect time for Beto to pivot and say “This tragedy has reminded me how much I love Texas and the people of El Paso. I am withdrawing from the Presidential campaign to run for the Senate and continue fighting, etc. etc.”
He won’t, of course, he thinks this will be enough to charge his national campaign. But it would be the best thing for everybody.
And that call for his incarceration would actually be justified. He has incited violence his entire life. It’s not hyperbole to lay this at his doorstep.
