Beto O’Rourke is a Deluded Loser running on a ticket of Lies, Hypocrisy and the vote-destroying message that all Americans are about to Die
Beto O’Rourke is a loser.
In 2016, he ran against Ted Cruz in the Texas Senate race, and lost.
He didn’t lose by much, just 2.6% of the vote in fact.
But he still lost, and in the brutal world of US politics that usually means the last anyone hears from you for the rest of your natural life.
(One of the few exceptions to this rule is Hillary Clinton, who was a double loser – first to Barack Obama in the Democrat nominee race in 2008, then to Donald Trump in the 2016 general election.)
But today, Beto O’Rourke announced he is running for President.
And he did so in rather unconventional fashion – by announcing the end of the world is fast upon us.
As US presidential campaign messages go, it at least had the benefit of being uniquely depressing.
There’s also the small matter of Mr O’Rourke’s staggering hypocrisy on the very issue of climate change.
For his Texas election campaign, he signed up to a No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge that declared he wouldn’t line his pockets with big cash donations from the oil, gas and coal barons.
Then it later emerged he’d accepted $476,325 in such donations.
Indeed, O’Rourke took so much that his name was humiliatingly removed from the No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge.
