Beta O'Rourke to join El Paso rally opposing Donald Trump appearance at border
KRCO ^ | 2-10-2019 | ABC Radio

Posted on 02/09/2019 10:31:29 AM PST by tcrlaf

It’s still uncertain whether Beto O’Rourke will stand opposite President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential campaign, but O’Rourke confirmed he will stand up to Trump at the Texas border Monday.

The former congressman said Friday he will attend a rally in his hometown of El Paso meant to counter Trump’s appearance in the city on the same night. O’Rourke will speak at the event at 7 p.m., the same time the president takes the stage.

The O’Rourke rally, according to organizers, will “show the country the reality of the border — a vibrant, safe, binational community that proudly celebrates its culture, history, diversity and status as a city of immigrants.”

“While some try to stoke fear and paranoia, to spread lies and a false narrative about the U.S.-Mexico border and to demand a 2,000 mile wall along it at a time of record safety and security, El Paso will come together for a march and celebration that highlights the truth,” the release from O’Rourke adds, in a paper-thin veiled reference to Trump.

Beta just won't go away. Only in the Democratic Party would being a loser propel one into the spotlight.

at least the Dems are making the choices in 2020 indisputably clear: national borers with controlled, merit-based immigration vs no national borders with uncontrolled immigration of unlimited numbers of sick, poor, criminal, and uneducated peasants ...

The Secret Service won’t let Beto and his thugs anywhere near Trump.

Nobody is demanding a 2000 mile wall. Not that these people care about facts.

We’re waiting till the wall is built, then we’ll dump him over the wall, and not allow him back in

obody is demanding a 2000 mile wall. Not that these people care about facts.

Losing the House was largely based on repeated lies from Dems. They campaigned on the fear that Republicans would take away their health care, take away protection for pre-existing conditions (which Trump campaigned against in every rally), would take away their social security and wanted to build a 2000 mile long wall, which Trump has never advocated. People on the left heard these things over and over and voter for Dems.

You know, Obama used to show up right after or before Trump appeared in Europe before the 2018 elections.

Obama met with Beto just shortly after the 2018 election and probably gave him advice on how to tease Trump.

Now Beto is going to be speaking the very same time as it as Trump.

Obama as Jedi master

Interesting.

El Paso is safe on this side of the fence, just like most American cities and towns on the border.

But on either side of the barriers for hundreds of miles they are coming. And periodically, a semi or car with drugs or illegal people try to cross through ports of entry.

They are here and they continue to come and they are overwhelming us.

Change the laws.

Stacie Abrams still around.
Beeto still around.

Remember when losers just quietly went away? Democrat candidates are the herpes of politics.

Obama is a stooge like the Beta male. Jedi Master? Jar Jar Binks is more like it. Obama couldn’t lead a f@rt out of a phone booth. If he’s it as Presidential mentors go, their cup runneth dry.

Lots of laughworthy vids of Obama w/o line of sight to his prompter; uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.

Lessee now....Fauxcahontas, Beta, Uncle Creepy, Booker, Castro, Harris....heck, if Dianne Feinstein weren’t so old she’d make a more credible candidate than any of them. The list is pathetic.

Anyway, let Beta go make a Texas size fool of himself. Watch as PDJT get some zings in. Get too close to the Donald and you could get burned.
