FULL TITLE: Beto Apologizes To Campaign Staff: ‘I Was A Giant Asshole To Be Around Sometimes’

2020 presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke apologized to his campaign staff for being a “giant asshole” at times during his failed Senate bid, video released Tuesday shows.

In “Running with Beto,” a documentary premiering Tuesday on HBO, O’Rourke gathered with a group of campaign staffers to thank them before giving his concession speech after losing to Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in the 2018 midterm election.

“I just feel very, very lucky, and I love you guys more than you’ll ever know,” O’Rourke said in the video obtained by The Daily Beast. “I know I was a giant asshole to be around sometimes, and you all never allowed my shortcomings to get in the way of running the best campaign this state has ever seen.” Cynthia Cano, his road manager, can be seen giving a slight nod after he calls himself a “giant asshole,” the Beast reported.

“I know I was a giant asshole to be around sometimes

Sometimes? Even when he apologizes he lies.

"He should be happy that he married up and rich and stop parading his myriad of flaws to the embarrassment of all. You know 'The View,' I believe, really provided the kill shot and turned him into a schoolboy whose jacket did not fit. And a beta male who will write about it in his dream journal when he gets home. Women know this guy from college. ... He lures you in the dorm with the illusion of depth, collection of campus and poetry"

Next he needs to apologize to the planet for trying to send it back into an ice age. And yes, that is also because he is an idiot.

Beto, that is really not the way to steal Butty-fudges voters, even though I’m sure it has gotten their attention.

Francis O'Rourke got a lot of out-of-state money and loads of favorable press because he was running against Ted Cruz.

Bozo mistook that for genuine popularity, and is now coming to grips with the fact that nobody really likes him.

So much for Presidential decorum and articulation.
He still doesn’t know any better not to talk that way while campaigning for the top office? During this period, everything you say to any group is likely to be repeated, often out of context.

Yep, now that Beto’s running against fellow Democrats, the bloom has left the rose.

Is that a ‘real’ film of Beto trip-falling off of a skateboard? Did that really happen? OMG!
All an opponent need do is to play that film over and over like a Gif. Is THIS who you want as president?
