Beto O'Rourke Is The Political Wart That Won't Go Away

 The Federalist  The sugar daddy of temper-tantrum-throwing Texas Democrats appears to be ramping up for another losing political campaign.  

"Why? Because Beto believes “that’s the highest and best use of what I can offer this state.” Yes, the gasbag really did utter that sentence."   

"Someone my family knows well — let’s just call her an old family friend to protect the subject of this, uh, sensitive story — for years battled a nasty plantar wart on the ball of her foot. Our friend and her doctors tried just about everything shy of amputation. Salicylic acid treatments. Prescription medicines. Cryotherapy. Immunotherapy. Minor surgeries (electrodesiccation and curettage). She couldn’t get rid of it. That freeloading wart just wouldn’t take the hint. 

"The unpleasant growth hung around so long she gave it a name: Stuey. 

"She should have called it Beto. As in Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke, the former congressman, three-time high-stakes political loser, and leftist hanger-on. He is the wart, the Stuey if you will, of American leftist politics. The multimillionaire — made so with a huge assist from his very wealthy daddy-in-law — has been rejected by Texas and national Democrats in races for U.S. Senate and governor and in his ill-fated bid for the White House. 

"Like a pesky plantar wart, Robbie has no intention of going away mad because he has no intention of going away. He’s an unrequited lover in need of a restraining order. A Texas judge recently slapped him with one. 

Powering ‘Deceptive Acts’

"Seeking a return to political relevance, O’Rourke resurfaced earlier this year alongside failed vice presidential candidate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, at a liberal rally/political stunt near Houston. You talk about looking for love in all the wrong places — or at least with all the wrong people. It’s part of O’Rourke’s strategy to force Texans to have to think about the has-been again." . . .  More... 

Argus Hamilton remarked: Texas Democrat Beto O'Rourke blasted Texas Republicans for their attempt to gerrymander 5 new GOP districts. In 6 years in Texas he's lost for senator, for president and for governor. In 2020 when Beto O'Rourke ran for president in the Democratic primaries, he polled .05%, tied with O’Doul’s .

Beto O'Rourke makes a fool of himself at rally for Texas's runaway lawmakers - Monica Showalter   . . . "Memo to Beto: When your opposition is using what you say at rallies to support their own cause instead of your friends, you know you've accomplished the opposite of what you thought you were accomplishing.

Just look at the idiocy of what he said: He called Republicans 'fascists' like the rest of them, and then vowed to break the rules, using his customary profanity. That pretty well negates the runaway Democrat lawmaker argument about 'saving democracy' and Republicans being a 'threat to democracy,' given that Beto let the cat out of the bag about Democrats now wanting power without rules. Beto just dislikes living by rules when Republicans turn the rules that Democrats made to their disadvantage.

"Meanwhile, Beto's call to legalize all DACA illegals and their parents will be about as popular in Texas as his last bright idea of gun control.   

"And did he really want to 'go there' with that crime metaphor about 'drive that car like it's stolen,' given his arrests for burglary and drunk driving? Somehow Beto is comfortable with thinking of his metaphors in crime terms." . . .
