Julián Castro warns supporters of campaign end if he doesn't make November debate

The end could be near for Presidential candidate Julián Castro.

According to an email Castro sent out to his supporters Thursday, if he doesn't meet a specific threshold, he won't make the November debate. He says if he doesn't get into the debate, "it will be the end of my campaign."

Castro asked for donations, which he would put toward ads, to help him in the polls, which says is aimed at keeping specific candidates out of the running.

"I know this new debate threshold is designed to cut candidates like me from the running," the email said. "It’s designed for wealthy candidates with unlimited funds to blanket the airwaves with their message. But I wasn’t born into privilege like other candidates."

At least its just his campaign is over, and its not like when the Lord was going to call Oral Roberts home if he did not get enough donations coming in.

His campaign is just an act of shameless panhandling at this point.

He won’t make it. Not because he is Hispanic, but because he has bad ideas. WOULD there be a Hispanic that would arise that had GREAT ideas.

That would definitely give him a bump in some liberal circles.

Julian, his twin brother and mother must be bitterly disappointed. However he does have a plan. Soon he will go to Mexico and renounce his gringo American citizenship and reclaim the legacy of his ancestors. Then he will become the Presidente of Mexico by promising to lead the Reconquesta. Castro will pledge to reclaim the lost provinces of California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas that were stolen by the gringos. Standing beside him with banners flying will be his brother, the wok Beto O’Rourke and the Soros family. Alas when he recrosses the border he will wake up and the dream will be over.

The end of his campaign was the day his brother doxxed those who made donations to Trump.
Ended up doxxing some of their own supporters, as well.
