Beto The Buffoon
Townhall.com ^ | March 17, 2019 | Jeff Crouere

The Democrats now have their rock star in the ever-growing presidential race. On Thursday, Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke officially launched his bid for the presidency. Beto is hoping to capitalize on the excitement that surrounded his losing U.S. Senate race last year in Texas. Despite a massive haul of $80 million, O’Rourke was defeated by incumbent U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX).

During his online announcement speech, O’Rourke warned that the United States faces “maximum peril,” but the nation remains the "the last great hope of Earth." At a speech in Iowa, O’Rourke warned that "not to be dramatic, but literally, the future of the world depends on us right now.”

In other words, if Americans do not elect Beto as their next President, the world may self-destruct. Clearly, this candidate is a total clown. His political experience is minimal, consisting of six years on the El Paso City Council and six years as a United States Representative. While in Congress, O’Rourke’s legislative accomplishments consisted of passing exactly one bill, naming a local courthouse.

When House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was asked about O’Rourke’s record in Congress, she fumbled for an answer, eventually praising his “vitality.” She also said that he was a “real champion for the environment,” although she could not list any specific legislation he supported.

Beto is like a mirage or a dream concocted by Hollywood liberals looking for the next John F. Kennedy or Barack Obama. According to his supporters, Beto is good looking, intelligent and charismatic; however, even his admirers must admit that he surely lacks gravitas.

How can a presidential candidate who skateboards onto a stage be taken seriously? Presumably, Beto believed that live streaming his recent teeth cleaning procedure was a smart thing to do to connect to millennial voters, but, in actuality, it just made him look ridiculous.

Would Ronald Reagan bring cameras into the dentist’s office? Of course not, remember this was the President who never removed his coat jacket in the Oval Office because he was so concerned about maintaining dignity and decorum in the White House. If elected President, Beto may erect a skateboard ramp in the Oval Office, so he can show off his skills to admiring reporters.

Beto is 46 years old, but he acts like he’s a teenager. He exudes little maturity or wisdom, only youthful exuberance. His positions on the issues are vague. In fact, on his website after his launch, there was a link to donate money and buy campaign gear, but no information about his platform.

While he decides on a platform, Beto also may want to fire his speechwriter. As he spoke to voters on the campaign trail in Iowa on Thursday and Friday, Beto joked that his wife was raising their three kids “sometimes with my help.” Immediately, he was blasted by outraged Democrats for parental stereotyping and comments that were considered sexist, condescending and even misogynistic. By the end of the day, Beto apologized and claimed that he would be “more thoughtful going forward in the way that I talk about our marriage."

As a presidential candidate, Beto will have plenty of explaining to do. First, he has to convince voters he has learned from his drunk driving arrest on his 26th birthday. While he claims he only had two beers,The Washington Postnoted his “blood alcohol content of 0.136 and 0.134,” indicated he consumed a much greater amount of alcohol. He will also need to explain why he supports the Green New Deal, the $93 trillion joke of a proposal that President Trump accurately referred to as a “high school term paper that got a low mark.”

Further clarity is also needed about Beto’s stance on the U.S. Constitution. Incredibly, he stated that he has doubts about the relevancy of the U.S. Constitution. In an interview with The Washington Post, O’Rourke questioned whether the United States can “still be managed by the same principles that were set down 230 plus years ago?”

Well, Beto the answer to your question is a resounding “Yes!” The U.S. Constitution is one of the main reasons that our country is a super power today. The genius of the Founding Fathers has been proven over and over again during our history. All Americans should thank God that U.S. Constitution has been our guiding document.

If Robert Francis O’Rourke could possibly claim to be 1/512th hispanic then he would certainly trump Fauxcahontas 1/1024th Cherokee.

Once more time. To all the Democrats who feel the Constitution is not relevant today, the document provides two paths to amending it. If parts of it are irrelevant, go to work on amending it. However, use the process proscribed not the path you’ve used for the past 50 years having 5 judges on the Supreme court “interpret” meaning into the document.

This is just a planned prelude. Beto is only running now to clear out all the baggage. All the negative history. Let his opponents use it all up now. Then it will just be old news when he runs again in 2024. And 2028. And 32. And 36.....

Drug soaked brain. Inherently appealing to the decadent and hedonistic Democratic base.

Robert Francis O’Rourke...
Irish pretending to be Hispanic...
Attended boarding school as a child...
Called himself psychedelic warlord as a teen...
Fantasized about running over children...
Covered up a DUI...
Covered up burglary charges...
Son of a local judge (which helped with the coverups)...
Married rich (her dad is worth $500m)...
Elected to El Paso City Council...
Used eminent domain to gentrify Latino neighborhoods (and to help his wealthy father in law to clear out poor people for downtown condos and shopping centers)...
Lost to Ted Cruz despite national support...
Got smaller crowds in El Paso than Trump, while campaigning on the same day in the same area of his hometown...
Has zero accomplishments to tout...
.
but apologizes for really bad weird poetry as a teen.
.
Imagine the press treatment he would get if he ran as an R
