Where did this idiot get that weird name “Beto???
From his equally weird grandmother, who made him into a Magic Mexican because he was beat up in school for being an Irish gringo....or so the legend goes.
Trying to appeal to Hispanic voters. His real name is Robert O'Rourke...a 4th generation Irish-American. "Beto" is a short nickname in Latin countries for Roberto.
That's a Mexican nickname for people named Robert/Roberto, used chiefly by charlatan politicians in states that have a significant Latino electorate and who shamelessly pander to said Latinos during elections on the assumption that they are so stupid that they don't recognize that they are being pandered to by a privileged, arrogant, Irish-American rich boy politician.
