Meet Julian Castro, who has big plans

You may not have heard of Julian Castro, currently Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, but you will. Hillary Clinton has him very near the top of her list for the veep slot on her ticket. It makes sense: he’s Hispanic, hard left, and the product of an elite education (Stanford, Harvard Law). So serious is the possibility that Page Six reports of him (and his brother Joaquin):

“Surprisingly, they don’t speak Spanish,” one insider told me. “They are cramming with Rosetta Stone.” (A spokesman for Julián denies he is studying Spanish.)

Julian was Mayor of San Antonio before he became Secretary of HUD, which makes him a highly experienced chief executive, adding to his veep luster, especially since Hillary is not exactly in the prime of health. His presence on the Dem ticket could really drive Hispanic turnout.

Be afraid. Be very afraid. Castro has big plans already. Paul Sperry reports in the New York Post:

The media is desperate to push these Castro losers, but they have the intelligence and charisma of a puddle of vomit. Hillary would manage to appear charismatic if only her and a Castro brother occupy a room.

“If it looks like NY comes into play Killery will take another former HUD Sec under the Clinton Admin...Andrew Cuomo.”


Can’t be - they are both from the same state, that won’t work, Constitutionally.

With a huge vote in San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, Austin, and the Rio Grande Valley, he may be able to swing TX to “the democracy”, as it was called in the days of Andrew Jackson.

You are right, but people in San Antonio truly believe in him.

Their mother is la raza. They don’t speak Spanish, my eye

They are scary. They have no business in American politics other than anti American subversiveness

Eeeyikes. Hillary’s old clintonistas are not her money people right now. So who is? Where do the castros get their dough? And influence.

No one but Trump would have a chance against these guys They are the kind that would make us put up a billboard of Obama asking “miss me yet?”

I think that they can be, although traditionally, for political purposes, they usually aren't. But Cuomo seems likely to be indicted even before Hillary is.

Hmmmm. Any chance that coumo would try to make all HUD affiliated properties gun free zones? Kinda LOL! He’s an assclown in the first degree and I can see him doing something like that. Or at least making the attempt.

I’m sure it would work great.

After all, those dependent on govt largess for housing are always in compliance with govt laws on guns / drugs / violence.

Right?

“I’ve heard of him. He scares me.”

He should scare you....when Julian was running for mayor of San Antonio, he was suppose to attend some function, but instead he sent his identical twin brother Joaquin to “fill in for him”. I don’t remember if Julian just didn’t feel like going or he has something else to do but, when it got out that Joaquin had subbed for his “honorable brother who was running for mayor”, it caused one heck of a stink here in San Antonio, Texas. So that should tell you what kind of a person Julian is.

He & his brother both terrify me. Damn San Antonio for foisting those vile creatures on the U.S. San Antonio must be as insanely leftist as Austin, Houston & Dallas.

That family is dangerous.
