Beto O'Rourke starts presidential campaign by claiming the world faces 'catastrophe' [tr]

Former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke warned Thursday in his first presidential campaign stop that parts of the planet will soon become uninhabitable, driving a massive wave of climate 'refugees' across the U.S. border, if America's government doesn't adopt emergency measures within the next 12 years.

O'Rourke, 46, had formally announced an hour earlier that he will seek the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, ending months of speculation over whether he would try to translate his newfound political celebrity into a White House bid.

In the southwestern Iowa town of Keokuk, a sweater-clad Beto told a smallish crowd that by the time his 12-year-old son is his age 'we may not be able to live in cities that we call home today, like El Paso, Texas. We may not be able to grow our own food and fiber, feed and clothe ourselves in this country.'

Any part of the World controlled by Islam is already uninhabitable

The most alarming thing about climate freaks is that NOT ONE of their ‘predictions ‘ has come true.

“Climate refugees”..Yes of course. The climate created the Libyan refugee crisis, not Hillary F. Clinton needlessly taking out the leader of that completely neutral country. And it’s the climate, not socialism, Islam or corruption. Mexico, Honduras would all be perfectly fine if it wasn’t for the climate.

So, LOSING a Senate Seat to ‘Lyin’ Ted’ Cruz suddenly qualifies you for the Presidency?

Oh, that’s right. Scooping Ice Cream and STEALING a Senate Seat in IL through dirty tricks against your opponent worked for 0bama, so I guess the sky’s the limit!

*SPIT*

Maybe Beto’s cat’s azz is getting a trophy? Oh wait, too logical.......I just saw a meme from 1989 announcing the UN says we will be under water on our coasts by 2000 if we don’t change our behavior. Yeah, right.

To run for president you need a lot of ego and self-delusion. He has both big time.

Yes, the World does face catastrophe. And according to the democrat party, a party that is all wise, all knowing, and the smartestest party in the World, that catastrophe is being caused by toxically masculine, white privileged males. Even worse, it is those white males that are engaged in cultural appropriation. You know like:

ROBERT FRANCIS O’ROURKE, that well known Latino dude.

Happy St. Paddy’s day to you bejesus Robert!!

He'll be one of the more liquid Dem candidates, in terms of both money and booze.

“if America’s government doesn’t adopt emergency measures within the next 12 years. ‘

not 11 or 13 years, but 12 years exactly ... the level of precision is astonishing ... i would just LOVE to see the proof ...

At least Robert Francis is a natural born citizen and eligible, unlike Obama.

Yep. God help us if these delusional psychopaths ever take the house, senate and the WH. Thanks a lot Obama. I guess the Rat party wasn’t radical enough, he had to take it way past far left field and into outer space. Now we got a Sharia supremacist and a bartender with the mentality of a 6 year old in Congress, and now their pushing this 47 year old moron who has the resume of a teenager for President. “He played in a punk band and worked as a nanny” WHOA! We gotta get HIM in office!
