Wow, checking Wikipedia, Beto had lots of business experience!

While Trump at a young age was buying apartments and becoming a real estate mogul in New York, look at the great stuff Beto did after college (Wiki):

After graduation, O'Rourke worked as a live-in caretaker and art mover before working for an Internet service provider run by his uncle.

He later took a position at H. W. Wilson Company as a proofreader, and wrote short stories and songs in his free time.

O'Rourke returned to El Paso in 1998. At first, he was working with computers as an inventory tracker at his mother's upscale furniture store and living in an apartment building owned by his father.

O'Rourke said he wanted to address "brain-drain", or the exodus of youth caused by lack of opportunity. 

In 2000, he co-founded Stanton Street Technology Group, an Internet services and software company.  With O'Rourke himself unable to obtain a loan, his father took out a $20,000 loan on his behalf.  The company's first client was O'Rourke's mother's furniture store.

Many folks would criticize Beto for being born with a silver spoon in his mouth.  But give him credit.  While Trump was bootstrapping himself to become a billionaire tycoon and star of a hit TV show, Beto was grooming himself to become a CONGRESSMAN!

Quite the entrepreneur, that Frankie O'Rourke.     /sarc

“art mover”?

What’s that? Like “move that picture to this wall and hang this picture on the other wall”?

All of those "really solid life experiences"......that's what he meant when he told V/F he was "born to run."

LOL..........
