“I was looking for the sun, and then Beto showed up.”
This is, without a doubt, my favorite quote of his entire campaign. To me, it perfectly describes what I saw each time Beto came to a new stop.
In this case, he was block-walking in Des Moines 8/21 when someone recognized him.
Tonight, in Mineral Wells, Texas
When a
@GregAbbott_TX
supporter laughs, yes, laughs out loud so everyone could hear, while Beto described the massacre of 19 children and 2 teachers in Uvalde, Beto quite appropriately lets loose with a MF.
Yep.
It was a pretty good one too.

Actually, this makes the situation worse. If it wasn’t just some isolated joker, but instead a coordinated group all laughing as loud as they could while Beto spoke about Uvalde it is so, so classless and offensive.
They more we find out, the more deserving they are of Beto’s MF.
Beto O’Rourke-
