For folks who don’t know—thousands of Mexicans legally cross the border every day to go shopping in El Paso.

So—your question is exactly on point.

BINGO! I agree.

It’s obvious by looking at it that it’s not tiny. People need to get real and put things in perspective. Libs are unable to think critically and too many on our side are the same.

Well, he’s holding this just blocks away from the border. Maybe some of the “migrants” showed up. 🤷‍♀️

One of us needs our eyes checked. Looks pretty small to me!

I can see delivery trucks passing behind the stage!

Beto HAS been doing this for a while having run for Senate. So IMO, it IS fair to compare this crowd to Trump's massive crowds.

A sad little group!.... :-)

If Bozo wants to get his audience numbers back up, he better bring back, into his act, some of his old favorites... like eating dirt and wearing a dress:

I believe Whitey O’Rourke is a walking cultural appropriation disaster for them on the same scale as Elizabeth Warren.

It would be funny if they were to lock him in as their nominee before his parent’s activities with the Cartels comes to light before the general public.

Beto is the biggest threat to Trump, not Biden. Period.

Now quickly, name the top 3 things he’s running on... Everyone knew what Trump was running on and that’s what brought the crowds...

Guy I know voted for O'Rourke. Retired cop. When I asked him why he'd vote for a guy that wants to take his guns, he said, he didn't know about that. O'Rourke ran on a totally issue free campaign. Willie Nelson, who is about as slimy as they come, but has a huge fan base in Texas, did a concert for him, and Esther's Follies, a pretty gross theater group out of Austin, did probably the worst ad ever, for him.

Esther's Follies Beto Video

So, that video has mostly his campaign platform. They'll try to do with him what they did with Obama. Hide his views and run on marketing. Problem for them now is that their primary constituents are running around like rabid dogs, biting anyone who can't pass the purity test, and nobody can pass the purity test. .

why would he block/use a street for his announcement? Seems it would bother drivers and shop owners and usual customers not wanting to wade through crowd to shop on a saturday morning.

You’re right...not as big as a Trump crowd but still a lot of people. Conservatives had better get real on what we’re up against. Calling a crowd like that “tiny” is ridiculous and deceptive and unrealistic.

Ditto. This proves that Hillary wasn't always wrong - she told Dick Morris "Look, the average democrat voter is just plain stupid. They are easy to manipulate. That's the easy part".

This is what we're up against - stupid people.

I am going to respectfully disagree with you on that.

First, I know nothing about the cartel reference you made. Second he has the same initials as Barack Obama, and a digestible, memorable name. Third, he has a very youthful appearance and a proven ability to raise money. I do not underestimate his Kennedy-like appeal. And in our image-based Idiocracy, I think that counts for something. Now it may be that he is an item only in Texas, and I am not going to pretend to be qualified to comment past that.

Beto could become the walking symbol of the left’s effort to overturn the redness of a key State like Texas. And furthermore if we look at the other potential Democratic candidates, it very much appears like they are going to be engaged in trying to out left each other. And he is certainly a member of that club. Now there is no question that the Democrats have the ability to throw anybody under the bus. And they will do it unhesitantly once they see they need to change course. But if it becomes the case that the ethnic members of their clown car Brigade that they plan to put forward next election cycle do not poll well, then they are going to get behind the white guy. And it may be that old white guys are no good so maybe young white guys are good.

I am definitely not saying that I am right and you are wrong. I am saying that there is something about him that somehow tweaks the imagination, much like Obama. As goofy as that may sound. I am just saying, as outlandish a choice as he may be now, a dozen months down the road, he could emerge as a leading candidate. By then, he will have honed His image, and massed his troops. He has the capability of becoming the topic matter of True Believers, much like Bernie. I am only saying, again, with respect, that he probably should not be underestimated.

Everybody is upset that people showed up see that empty husk of a man Robert.
I wonder how many got paid to attend.
