What a self centered anul orifice. This is an individual that wants to use the government to take money from you at the threat of confiscation of property, wage with holding, and possible death at gun point reinforcement charity to buy more votes for him. With the wages paid and benefits received it is no sacrafice

Also from that link....

“It’s all a little sad when you think about it. O’Rourke isn’t going to be president, at least of this country. His campaign is dead — totally dead. It went toes up last week, from a fatal overdose of Buttigieg.”

The obvious thing is - Buttgig will also flame out (pardon the pun)

He is currently the media’s Darling Boi. But butt humping another man is NOT going to get him anywhere near the White House.

This may be his “I voted for it before I voted against it” moment.

I do my best to contribute to the success of my community, my state and now, of my country. There are ways that I do this that are measurable. And there are ways that I do this that are immeasurable," he said.

This man doesn't have to give to charity. Running for office is his great act of charity. To us. The little people.

Wow...what a dumb position for a politician to take. Go to his web page and read what his positions are. He's as bad as Bernie.

Most leftists have at least some agenda to marginalize if not end charitable activities.

Liberals promote government services over private charity. Stop and ask why. Private charity is based on the giver realizing that whatever they have there are people who have less and choosing to share part of their blessings however meager they may be. Government services are based on the receiver seeing that whatever they have, there are people who have more and they should be forced to share their blessings. Stop and think about that for a moment.

This is seriously how the red doper diaper baby class thinks. Because they have an inheritance, trust fund, tenured professorship with a big salary and light work load, etc. they think public service is a gift to the masses.

After all, they could be on a beach sipping mai-tais and banging pretty girls, but instead they are sharing their wisdom from their god with we, the unwashed masses, by governing us fools.

Some of us are just too brainwashed by traditional conservative and Christian values to appreciate their greater wisdom. Nevermind that such values are timeless and ageless and have worked for thousands of years of recorded human history. None of that matters now that they are here.

Maybe he’ll run a Grubhub business one day. His would be an interesting menu, for sure.

and sent $1,166 to charity

I'd like to know WHAT charity that money was sent to... Knowing how cheap the liberal millionaire, fake Hispanic Beto is... we know there's an interesting self-serving back story...

I'm guessing this is the maximum amount his CPA said he could claim without any proof...OR like that other liberal lowlife Bill Clinton - the writeoff was for donating used boxer shorts to Goodwill...

After watching him speak to a crowd this man/boy is seriously lacking in intelligence,,really don’t think he is worth even discussing. He is going nowhere.

He thinks highly of himself.
His "contribution" has negative value IMHO.
