Beto O’Rourke mocks Texas governor’s reopening message – then hears back from Crenshaw, Cruz
Fox News ^ | May 23 2020 | Dom Calicchio

Democrat Beto O’Rourke Tried to get the upper hand late Friday, mocking the gradual reopening of the Texas economy from coronavirus shutdowns as “Dangerous, dumb and weak.”

But at least two Texas Republicans weren’t having it.

U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw and U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz each fired back at O’Rourke, the former congressman from El Paso who failed to unseat Cruz in 2018 and then ran an unsuccessful bid for the Democratic Party’s 2020 presidential nomination.

Beto must have gone back to the desert and ate more dirt. It did not work, again.

“Is this the new Dem slogan?” Cruz snapped back.

Crenshaw derided O’Rourke’s post as “a condescending reaction.”

“The guy who wanted to be Texas’s Senator truly believes Texans can’t make decisions for themselves and that they are ‘dumb and weak’ for living their lives and trying to feed their families,” Crenshaw wrote.

“And yes, he’s talking to all Texans, not just our governor,” Crenshaw added. “Governor Abbott can’t force anyone to go back to work. Texans are choosing to do that, despite what people like Beto scream from their ivory towers.”

Irish Bob O’Rourke desperately seeking another 15 minutes of fame. Ignore the little Schiff.

Beto is right. Most people are too dumb, dangerous, and weak to marry an heiress to a billion dollar fortune.

He’s a poor mans John Kerry, who married two rich heiresses, the first one wasn’t rich enough so he moved on the Theresa Heinz heiress to the Heinz Food empire....

Beto has a bunch of catching up to do in order to get to Kerry’s level.

To do that Beto would first have a sense of shame. He doesn’t.

Crenshaw should have added “not everyone married into money and therefore your only concern is where you will ride your skateboard too today”

Total MSM beatdown. You have to see this.

@PressSec Kayleigh McEnany ends Press Briefing Calling Out The Media For Ignoring Michael Flynn Unmasking

“Did anyone take it upon themselves to pose any questions about Michael Flynn & unmasking to President Obama’s spokesperson? Oh, not a single journalist has posed that question.”

Here are 5 questions any good reporter *should* ask:

Yes, Beto is an idiot, yes, he is a dumbocrat and therefore says stupid things.

And, yes, he lost to Ted Cruz....

But only by a razor-thin margin: 50.9 to 48.3

If the dims have their way with mail-in ballots, that win will be reversed.

Now THAT is scarey.

Beto should team up the Stacey Abrams to have a “most important in our own minds” contest.

Two worthless dregs of society who never accomplished a useful thing and are somehow held up by the leftists as “important.”

Beto the Bozo is about as relevant as a piece of used toilet paper.
