Beto O'Rourke Is Still a Reckless Driver('Do You Know Who I Am' syndrome?)

For six days and 10 events, I chased Beto from west to east across the state — a sliver of this mostly rural tour that began in his hometown of El Paso last month and traces the perimeter of the state, including the border with Mexico, before ending near Dallas in September.

And when I say chased, I mean it. The man drives as if he’s a criminal trying to lose a tail, easily going 95 to 100 mph at times.

“If we want to create 30 minutes to eat lunch, we gotta drive fast,” he says, devouring a chocolate-dipped ice cream cone at a Dairy Queen. (A week after I left him, police pulled him over outside of Galveston and warned him to slow down.)

It’s a typical marathon schedule for the 49-year-old father of three, who wakes up at 6 every morning to go for a four-mile run before driving himself and three staffers to every event, as well as knocking on doors in temperatures so high that tar from the road melts onto your shoes.

O'Rourke, who was previously arrested for drunk driving, would do well to consider the safety of all Texans as he travels to events.

Weird huh? Back in the day not that long ago, the mere accusation of such activity nearly cost someone the nomination. But demokkkommies have the get out of jail free card available to them.

The fake Hispanic Irishman Robert “Beto” O’Rourke is a lunatic, but I’ve been seeing his signs pop up around Harris county for weeks now. Not surprising in this blue enclave, but I would expect to see at least a few Abbot signs. Perhaps that’s the problem with the Rep. establishment running the Bush lite RINO “safe” candidate every time?

I refuse to refer to Robert Francis as Beto. Are hispanics really fooled?

I doubt you or I would get a "warning" for going 90+ mph.

A very very very long time ago, I had a conversation with a guy who worked security at the Saudi Embassy in DC. One night, the Embassy had a party, and his job was to run the mirror under cars entering the compound to check for bombs. Well, Colin Powell drives up, and they make him stop for his car to be checked. And ol’ Colin says....wait for it.... “Do you know who I am?”

It’s pretty obvious that Beta doesn’t give a warm bucket of spit for real Texans.

I don’t put up Republican yard signs because I don’t want DemoRAT filth stealing the signs and possibly targeting my home for domestic terrorist action.

Well at least he’s got something in common with Bush.

Democrats are in a daily internal competition to see who can be the most loathsome.

My granddad, Tom Hill Miller of Lohn, Texas used to call that type “scofflaws”. They often end up killing somebody else and not themselves.

Before moving to Houston from Los Angeles, I had republican yard signs every year. Never had a problem.

I don’t feel particularly partisan about Abbot, but figured it was a good way to say hello to my new neighbors here in Rice Village, if nothing else to let ‘em know that we’re not here to Californicate their Texas.

“he is incapable of feeling shame.”

He grew up a privileged rich kid with an entitled liberal mentality.

He doesn’t live in the real world, and can’t even relate to it. Yet libtards lap up his nonsense. Go figure.

Maybe he and Liz Cheney could get together, what a perfect couple.
