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

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.

In addition to all his other flaws, he just simply looks like a colossal dork.

What is a “Beto?” Sounds like a real jerk.

Ah yes, Valerie Jarrett: the Rasputin of the Obama regime.

Would love to see her debate PDJT. Has she ever spoken in public, or only deep within the halls of power?

Now, I don’t know if she could be on stage with our President, what with her 24-7 security staff and all just might outnumber The Donald’s.

Exactly. Why would anyone support someone that supports illegals over American citizens. Plenty of stupidity out there though.

Creepy eyes and horse teeth. Is that an inbred characteristic of the Democrats?

Republicans need to press Beto and democrats to tear down the wall at El Paso.

Everyone should be allowed to enroll for free in UTEP.

this would destroy a placid democrat corrupt community and prove republicans right.

Tear down this wall Beto !

Unfortunately Trump's team gave that idiot Francis and his racist demonKKKrats too much time to plan a counter protest in El Paso!! The Element of surprise is gone against the enemy! They are swearing chaos to frighten Trump's supporters from attending his rally ...that part of town is the worst place to hold this rally!! The El Paso county coliseum is surrounded by thugs and illegals. And to make matters worse there is a great lack of safe parking! Keep us MAGA PATRIOTS who will be attending in your prayers.The fake mediaVOMITS are hyping and encouraging the demonKKKrats loyalist to attend the march...I KID YOU NOT!!!

Would pay to see that event....."Beto" is a nickname from when his mother kept catching him..she just shortened it as a "private" secret.
