Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Reagan, Beto O’Rourke... How a mighty nation has fallen so low.

It fell with Barack Hussein.

As he showed in his hard-fought Senate race against Ted Cruz

Yeah, the race that had three billionaires adding their shekels to Beaten's race making it THE MOST EXPENSIVE SENATE RACE EVER!!

But he still lost because Texas didn't have enough voter fraud to make a big difference.

Not so fast. I saw this on the Facebook page of a very well-known far-left organization:

"Been looking into Beto a little more. Turns out he's purchased by the Israeli lobby and defense contractors. He receives more money from Big Oil than any Senator except Ted Cruz. Even the dreaded healthcare industry is stepping in to support him...and he's deep in with Wall Street which is why he opposes taxing them. Beto is the oligarchy's answer to suppress the progressive revolution in 2020."

Jennifer Rubin is the kind of fake “conservative” the MSM loves to put forward....

Has America become so decadent that it would elect this cartoonish leftist clown?

Elect? Not a snowball's chance in hell... But if democrats want him to run - fine. He'll lose. He's plastic and shallow... and that'll shine through on a national stage.

“Can Beto O’Rourke make the leap?”

let’s hope so ... the more Dem losers that throw their hats in the ring, the more money being pissed away by Dem donors, and the more candidates to beat each other up in the debates and primaries ...

Folks, we are still in the process of burying G.H.W. Bush - the man who didn’t get a second term because he did not take seriously enough a long shot opponent - H. Ross Perot. That fatal error ended up giving us 8 years of Bill Clinton and all the sequelae that brought with it. Imagine as alternate history, if Bush had beaten Clinton. Bill Clinton would go back to Arkansas, and Hillary would be a small footnote in history. Not speaking ill of the dead here - but that lame excuse for a 1992 campaign had dire consequences for the country. Bush was the far better person, the far better leader. Not taking out Perot early and decisively meant that Clinton wins with 43.8% of the popular vote.

I am hoping the Dems hitch to the Beto wagon as the Donald will eat this punk for lunch and show him for the panty wearing wussie he is.
