Yes, he is so stupid that he thought he could..

Beto was the empty suit that the dems decided to push as the second coming to get a state wide win in TX in the 2018 cycle.

I don’t blame the DNC and their allies in the media for making the play. Cruz had angered a good segment of his base with some of his antics in the 2016 primary cycle... and they had 2 years of Trump hate they had instigated and flamed to work with. That was probably the best opportunity the Dems had to make a play for a big statewide win in TX.. an off year election with a damaged incumbent with support issues in his base, and a democrat base fired up to 11. Only an open seat in an off year, or a special election make for a better chance for the non incumbent party to get a win.

They made the decree that they would make this play, and the whores in the media happily helped and pushed this empty suit as the second coming. Tons of national cash flooded in as they told their donor base, we are going to get a win in TX...

The problem was, Robert is so damned STUPID that he didn’t realize that he was LITERALLY an empty suit, a prop, a mannequin. The person in the suit LITERALLY could have been anyone and the 2018 TX senate race would have played out about the same.

He actually bought into his own manufactured press, and decided to go for the white house, because he is absolute too stupid to recognize the truth of the situation. He really thought there was some real demand for him... The fact he even got into the race showed he is far far too stupid to EVER be president.

He failed to recognize his 15 minutes of fame was over, and once in the race, he rapidly became DESPERATE for attention and kept going loopier and loopier trying to get some... in the end, he went down like the pathetic dog he is.

NO different from Wendy Adams attempt at the 2014 TX governors race.. She got her 15 minutes with her silly tennis shoe speech, that got the national leftists fawning over her, and convincing her she could have a real shot at the Governorship, even though she was just some back bencher nobody. And in the end didn’t even get 40% of the vote... Loser than ANY democrat facing an open seat governors race in TX in the my lifetime. Only difference was she was limited in only overplaying her hand into a state race, not a national one.

I think most candidates do not expect to achieve nomination, much less POTUS.
For most it’s a job: set up & lead a 2-3 year project, generate a revenue stream of a few million dollars, allocate salaries comfortably, make a short-term living of narcissistic self-indulgence, be popular, make connections, fold up the project when spending exceeds revenue, pay off contractural debts (including to self), route remaining funds to next project, and make a good side buck via books & lectures.

Doesn’t have to be a huge win, just a decent living in a profession where gigs last about 1-3 years then on to the next.

And given who they’re up against, seems none actually _want_ the nomination lest they get crushed. Make a good buck, win friends & influence people, then get out well before yer left holding the hopes of the Democrat Party with no chance of success.
