Former U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke called on Democrats to do more than "comprehensive immigration reform" the next time they take back the White House and Congressional majorities, at a rally on Saturday against the GOP effort to redistrict Texas congressional districts.
"We absolutely failed to live up to the expectations that we set, so next time we win power, we're going to drive that car like we stole it," he said at the rally in Fort Worth called "The People vs. The Power Grab."
BETO O'ROURKE: Check this out.
"You know, Democrats -- present company excluded -- have talked an awful good game on immigration for as long as I have been listening. You know, "If you just keep voting for us once we get in power, comprehensive immigration reform."
Well, we won power in 2008, the White House, the House and the Senate. We won power in 2020, the White House, the House and the Senate.
The American people were watching because we had promised them what we would do with that power, and we absolutely failed to live up to the expectations that we set, so next time we win power, we're going to drive that car like we stole it.
We're going to legalize every DREAMer, every DREAMer's parents, every hardworking American doing backbreaking work that makes this country so goddamn great in the first place, even greater as US citizens."

True enough, but we may not have seen every cheating move the LIEberals have concocted!
We cannot just sit back and watch the LIEberals self-destruct — we need to HELP them!
AND, we need to win BIGLY in 2026 and 2028!
Don't be so confident. The pendulum swings. Political parties rise and fall, then rise again.
Or do you think that Trump represents the End of History?
They need the illegals for seats in the blue states through the census. They get drivers licenses and are voting....
All about power.
That is why they opened the border.
No Beta Simp, you’re not gonna do that.
Blah blah blah, Robert.
Why we condone this behavior is beyond me. He should be in JAIL and The Stupid Party, Justice Dept., and Trump do nothing except TALK.
This guy’s nickname is just so he can hispander. His surname is O’Rourke, so he’s about as Latin as Vladimir Putin.
Go ride your skateboard, Beta, and leave us alone.
All this time democrats could have worked to change the laws, but made no attempts to, other than deals for various amnesties.
They didnt in order to keep it as an issue they could leverage against political opponents.
They had eight years of obama and 4 of obama biden jill, and didn’t change the laws. Instead they didnt enforce the laws that were on the books because its easier than trying to change them, and if they dont change them they can still “rage against them”.
You wanna know insane people? Theythinkmthis is a good thing fprmtheir countries. No other countries think its great to let illegals get amnesty by the millions. Only those with insane people bent on fundamentally destroying their countries.
Note to that half baked Irishman ...
For every foisted immigrant, there is a cylindrical piece of brass, with their name on it.
I crap bigger than Beto O’Rourke.
“...we’re going to drive that car like we stole it...”
Beto is so lame that he stole that phrase from ZZ Ward from a song she did over a decade ago.
“Move Like You Stole It”
Texans need to do something about this moron ( and others) . They dealt with Comanches, how much less challenging are these cretins? Saddle up.
๐ Of course President Trump is not the “end of history.” The pendulum is swinging right. Or hadn’t you noticed? Yes, the Left will likely regain power again, but not as soon as Beto thinks.
Yeah, that about covers it.
That is what democrats do, steal cars. Those democrats in power will encourage the theft.
FTA: we’re going to drive that car like we stole it
They will not win power. They will take it, like he said. Democrats will manipulate and rig elections like they have for a long time.
That’s all the Democrats and Communists do is illegal acts.
They’re going to legalize every illegal immigrant for votes. That’s always been their plan, and why they allowed millions of random people to cross our borders.
