Beto O'Rourke Makes It Clear: I'm Coming for the Guns If Elected Texas Governor
Patriot Fetch ^ | 11/22/21 | Johnny

He failed as a Senate candidate. He failed as a presidential candidate. Might as well go for the trifecta and fail as a gubernatorial candidate, too, right?

 

Well, let’s all pray that far-left radical Beto O’Rourke crashes and burns in his bid to succeed Greg Abbott as governor of Texas.

Because if the guy wins, the Lone Star state is in a world of hurt.

From The Daily Wire:

Texas Democrat Robert Francis O’Rourke, commonly referred to as “Beto,” told CNN during an interview on Sunday that he wants to pursue gun confiscation if he is elected to be the state’s next governor, and he refused to say that he wanted President Joe Biden to campaign for him in the state.

Gun control, in particular, was your number one issue in your presidential campaign,” CNN host Dana Bash said in reference to O’Rourke’s failed campaign.

Bash then played a clip from one of the presidential debates where O’Rourke declared, “Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.”

I’m starting to think he’s just in it for the fundraising.

His parents are wealthy, he married money, and lib donors are suckers. Made in the shade.

Despite being a Democratic and positioning himself as an everyday man of the people, Beto O’Rourke has a net worth of between $10 million and $15 million as of 2020.

Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke (born September 26, 1972) has a net worth over $10 million thanks to growing up rich and inheriting $5 million worth of real estate when his father passed in 2001.

IF “He” was serious, I suspected he would get the bullets first.

Anyone running for public office on a gun-control platform in TEXAS would
have a better chance of winning a snowball fight in Phoenix, Arizona in July.
Seriously.

So, he has never had much of a real world experience and, if he convinces suckers to elect him, will not be a good administrator.

Sounds like Presidential material, to a Demicrat. Lots of advisors would steer him on the proper course.

Someone should run for office in Minnesota on the premise of banning walleye fishing.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

I don’t think that’s a winning campaign slogan in Texas. 😄
