Beto O’Rourke: Trump Is Driving Violence by Giving Racism ‘New Life’
breitbart.com ^ | 8/24/2019 | Pam Key

Friday on MSNBC’s “Hardball,” 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX) said President Donald Trump was “driving” violence by giving racism “new life.”

O’Rourke said, “When he was making his case to the country, announcing his candidacy for the presidency, he talks about Mexican immigrants as rapist and criminals, repeatedly warned of invasions from Mexico and Central America, called asylum seekers animals, called them killers, called them predators, put their children in cages, deported their parents back to the very countries from which they fled —and you talked about this a little bit in the run-up to this interview—at that rally in May in Florida, when he’s warning of this invasion and he says how do we stop these people, someone yells out shoot them, and the crowd roars their approval, and he smiles. He says this is okay. And in the face of gun violence that has claimed 40,000 lives just in the last year, he’s done nothing. He’s complicit, actually corrupted by the NRA. So he’s driving a lot of this violence. I want to make clear, racism in America did not start with Donald Trump but he’s given it new life. He’s welcomed it into the open, and along with that, the violence that drove somebody literally 600 miles from Allen, Texas, to El Paso to kill 22 people in this city.” He added, “We have got to connect those dots or we’re not going to stop the next mass shooting or the next act of domestic terrorism inspired by white supremacy.”

"..inspired by white supremacy." Uh, 'scuse me mr faux mehicano, IIRC, the POS perp said all the democommie contestants raising their collective mitts saying that "we" should provide health care to the trespassers was the final straw. I could be wrong. But either way, you beatOmeatO are a UPOS.

Look in the mirror, Beto, if that truly is your name.

Is Beto still at 1% or has he jumped to 2?

His real name is Bob. He is an absolute embarrassment. He reminds me of D list celebrities who say or do things to get attention & they look utterly desperate & foolish.

More demonstration of the Left’s clinical delusion.

Below is an excerpt from a medical analysis of the type of “projection” the Left uses. The dysfunctional mental state of the Delusional Lying Left is evidenced by pathological defensiveness, denial, and delusional projection, delusional paranoia, and fantasy. We on the Right should be using this as target practice against the psychologically dysfunctional Lying Left.

“The [Ego Disequilibrium] theory accepts the hypothesis that there is a hierarchy of defense functions with denial, delusional projection (including delusional paranoia), and distortion, the most primitive and hierarchically lowest defenses, followed by projection and fantasy...”

Anjan Chatterjee & H. Branch Coslett, The Neuropathologies of the Self (Chapt 11) in The Roots of Cognitive Neuroscience: Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychology, 243 (2014).

If you want to know what the Left is doing, just watch how they label the Right - it is EXACTLY what the Left is doing. The left is truly delusional.

Odd... all this racist talk. No one can cite a single instance of Trump saying anything racist, yet these jerks recite bumper-sticker mantra.

Maybe i’m missing something, but who would choose what sounds like a ridiculous name over a real name?

Maybe it’s common somewhere but i’ve never heard of it.

OK...and at what point did he say something that was incorrect?

Then how come the vast majority of violence, including violence against “people of color”, occurs in cities run by Democrats?

They figure if they keep saying ‘racism’ (without proof) enough it will stick.

That kind of Jedi mind trick only works with the feeble-minded and democrats (but I repeat myself)

Seems to me that the racists are those obsessed with race. All of that is coming from the leftist Rats.
