The Weird Creepy Candidate that is Beto O'Rourke

[Doc Safari]

Some clarification on the "furry" thang:

On March 14th, following the announcement by Texas Democrat Beto O'Rourke that he plans on making a presidential run, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) made a tweet incorrectly claiming that the candidate is a furry. This claim stems from video of Beto in a sheep costume was released in January, however his purpose for wearing it had nothing to do with furry fandom activities.

Beto was a part of a band who donned their sheep costumes while performing punk covers on stage in El Paso. The intention was to hide their local demeanor an to play it off as if they were a New Zealand band from out of town, according to a Mother Jones interview. I suppose it's fitting if you are fleecing your band to be more exotic than it is, than a sheep outfit fits quite well.

Right. That's not deceiving your audience, is it? Furry or not, I keep hearing "banjo music" for some reason. Wasn't there a movie about some guys in canoes and someone squealing like a pig?





EDITED TO ADD:

Okay, dammit. I can't go to sleep tonight without sampling the video here:

My take: Joey, Johnny, Tommy, and Dee Dee are rolling over in their graves.

The Vanity Fair cover was a rip off of TIME magazine's January 5th, 1981 cover of Ronald Reagan (peace be upon him) standing with his hands behind him in his back pockets while wearing a Canadian tuxedo.



I heart this photoshop!

I absolutely refuse to call him "Beto". His f*****g name is Robert, and that fake-ass Hispanic sounding name is bullshit. He's as white as it comes, yet the mindless minions out there no doubt think he'd be our first Latino POTUS. What friggin' idiots.

Keep pushing the nut cases forward Democratic Party.
They're going to have a field of twenty candidates before the primaries start and fall victim to being divided between Democrat and Democrat Socialist and have a split inside the party.
Trump's gonna thrash them after they're through thrashing each other.

[Jellybean]

He is just what the Dems need. He is young, hip, handsome, identifies as Hispanic and can promise free stuff with the best of them.

I don't know man... I think the Yang Gang might give him a good run for his money...
But yeah, if Obama and Trudeau are anything to go by, "hip, youngish, fast talker" seems to be the only thing you need to run for POTUS on the D ticket these days, and make a big splash with the young'uns. Well, that and have a loony-left set of objectives...
I should run just for laughs. Wonder how far I'd get... Hell, I can even claim more than 1024th percent of "special" heritage if I want...and we all know there's no guarantee to follow up on any promises once in office...

Trump won't have to DO anything, if he's still on office next year. Just walk out, smile and be like "bigly, amirite?"
2020 and on is going to be such a shitfest regardless of who wins...

The more the Dems go off their rocker, the more voters they push Trump's way... the real worry is 2024, when we don't have an Heir Apparent or even a shortlist waiting in the wings. On the upside, that also means not as much advance warning for Oppo Research... Cruz has a brilliant legal mind but little charisma (ironically, EXACTLY why I like him, I'm instinctively distrustful of anyone who trades on charm and builds a personality cult), Jeb has Electile Dysfunction that all the Viagra on Earth couldn't cure, Rubio's a backstabbing little he-bitch who couldn't be trusted if he said the sky is blue, Graham has a (shared with Rubio) fetish for gun-grabbing Red Flag laws... maybe Haley?

And actually, a more accurate name for the El Paso fraudster is Beta (as in "beta male," though he's more like whatever below that tongue-leans a beta's ass after a massive shit) O'Dork (as in, well... DORK). Ya know, I remember a time when men who wrote masturbatory fantasies about murdering children were committed for long-term Inpatient Psychiatric Care.

If ya'll haven't figured it out yet, the 2020 DNC Primary is going to be quite glorious. I've never watched a single DNC Primary debate in my life, but I'm positively going to tune into the ones coming up just to see which candidate gets the chance to go full potato first and which candidate tries to out-do them.

And the debates should be held in a mental hospital... where they should ALL be committed.

I hope the Dems run that freak.

Hoping they try to run the boat-anchor that is Killary up the flagpole again, myself... but watching Trump rip Sheepsuit Soiboi apart would be just priceless.
