Bloomberg once estimated the wealth of Beto’s father-in-law at $20 billion. But obviously that’s not worth mentioning when you profile him
Young Beto O’Rourke casts himself as the ‘anti-Trump’. But his father-in-law, it turns out, is a billionaire property developer with a contentious relationship with non-white residents — not unlike the President. Beto’s more the proto-Jared Kushner.
The New York Times today revealed the highly interesting news that friend-of-the-little-guy Beto married well. Very well. His wife is not only the daughter of William D. Sanders, aka the Warren Buffet of real estate, Cockburn can reveal she is the only daughter. Sanders’s portfolio is valued at about $20 billion.
Nothing wrong with that, of course, but something is amiss when an endless stream of laudatory profiles fails to mention it. ‘Stop the Press Before It Profiles Beto O’Rourke Again,’ came the muffled cry of Politico’s Jack Shafer a couple of weeks ago, from beneath a deluge of glowing cuttings about the Texas congressman. Having a profile of the boyishly handsome skateboarder standing against Sen. Ted Cruz is as key an ingredient to a left-leaning media site as an Instagram page or a round of cuts when your staff try to unionise.

She better be uggly.
There is something rather Jared-like about him!
drunk-driving punk-rock drummer DID *ONE* THING RIGHT..!
Freakin’ LUCK-OUT, dayum.
Can we please call him his name, ROBERT, and not participate in this stupid “beto” BS? It’s like Liz Warren asking to be called Hiawatha.
For the same reason no one noticed his mother laundered money for a Mexican cartel (and got busted) and his coke head father was murdered when he became a cooperating witness for the FBI.
Nor did they notice that Bobby (not Beto) pushed eminent domain to crush a Mexican barrio to enrich his family.
Reminds me of John Kerry marrying a rich heiress (widow of Republican Senator John Heinz) who then used her ketchup money to run for Prez. (Not sure of the spelling of her name, Teresa or Theresa).
I wonder what Dad thinks about his metrosexual, leftist son-in-law?
Dunno, bro. Think I'm, like, gunna marry this one rich chick who came to the kig, the other day, 'nome sayin'...?
"Oh, bother....."

Jared like....
A few tens of millions of dollars improves one’s looks.
Remember John Kerry’s wife the multi billionaire Heinz fortune one, who said: If I ever find out John has fooled around on me I will maim him. Notice I did not say I would kill him. Maim him.”
I believe Kerry has worn Kevlar shorts day and night after that, just in case.
Well... Duh.
Right.
We shouldn’t allow destruction of our language.
Undocumented means illegal. The community usually means black people. Redistribution means taking from the wealth earners and sending it to the poor if they vote Dem.
More like the scrawny, lucky-marriage club. (Though Jared’s family of course with their own real estate empire, marred by scandal.)
“There is something rather Jared-like about him!”
If you mean like Jared the kiddie-porn collector of Subway fame then yes, I agree!
She looks like O’Rourke in drag, but shorter.
“Can we please call him his name, ROBERT, and not participate in this stupid “beto” BS? It’s like Liz Warren asking to be called Hiawatha.”
...or Psychojawea.
There is something rather Jared-like about him!
