Beto O’Rourke plans counter-rally to Trump event in Texas

Beto O’Rourke is planning a counter-rally as President Donald Trump addresses supporters in Dallas next week — recalling the dueling events held on the Texas-Mexico border eight months ago that helped launch the former congressman’s White House bid.

The Democratic presidential candidate will stage a “Rally Against Fear” the evening of Oct. 17 at The Theatre at Grand Prairie in suburban Dallas around the same time Trump is holding an event of his own at the American Airlines Center, home to the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks and the NHL’s Dallas Stars. Trump says he’ll highlight the strength of the Texas economy, which his campaign says has added nearly 775,000 jobs since he took office in 2017.

O’Rourke told The Associated Press that his event will be open to anyone who wants to stand up for the truth at an important moment in the nation’s history.

Rally Against Fear

What a pussy

Seriously. In fact, whenever I hear "Fear" I think of Fear's performance on SNL. It is epic; it earned them a lifetime ban.

How much is he paying people to attend?

How much is he paying? What am I thinking? How much is George Soros paying people to attend?

There. Fixed it.

Former Rep. Beto O’Rourke has not met the polling threshold for the MSNBC/Washington Post debate in November. The Democrat National Committee has required that candidates hit at least three percent support on four qualifying state or national polls, or five percent in two qualifying state polls. NBC News revealed that O’Rourke had not yet reached the polling requirement to participate in the MSNBC debate, as well as former Housing Secretary Julián Castro, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. Recent polls show O’Rourke still struggling.

“Betos venue 6,350 seats”

my guess, is that they’ll be set up for a much smaller space than that; i doubt Beto’s campaign can afford to rent the whole facility ... plus the optics of an unfilled cavern won’t look good ...

That would be far too exciting for Beta. I say it would be him trimming his nose hairs.

Trump’s rally will be the elephant and Beto’s rally will be the pimple on the elephant’s ass.
