Basically he says he wants to let people smoke Pot, give amnesty to illegals, says the world will end in 12 years , and gun control.
Maybe on NC Senator Thom Tillis's back? The man who in typical Republican fashion wrote an OP/ED claiming he'd vote against Trump's 'emergency' but laid down and was to chickens**t to live up to his word?

I finally get to listen to him on tee vee, he says all the right thing, but nothing specifics.
The only one of his speeches that I saw was the 12 years until hundreds of millions are climate refugee rants.
Seriously, you are running on that in the US? Go be an EU commissar or a UN official jetting about telling people that they can only travel by mass transit to save the planet.
Beto has yet to tell us how many individual donors contributed to that 6.1m money haul in the first 24 hours of him announcing. We know Kamala got 39 000 donors. A respectable number. Bernie got 230 000 donors in the first 24 hours. Beto refuses to tell us.
Same "diversity issue" as Bernie? Have you watched too much mainstream media?
Is there really anything of substance to say this early as the Democrat candidates try and out "LEFT" each other?
The talking points consists of Trump BAD, Global Warming or Global Cooling or Climate change depending on what the weather is doing that day, confronting illegal immigration by doing something at the border but it is not a wall, possibly disbanding ICE because they are meanies and don't dare mention the "A" word (Amnesty) because that will have people flocking to Trump. Meanwhile we have other candidates talking about destroying the Second amendment and modelling the US gun laws to resemble New Zealands while others are talking about the Race war and reparations and lets not forget the Green New Deal.
The Dems have an uphill battle unless they can get past this nonsense.
How about the policies that Bernie is running on:
1. Medicare-for-all
2. $15 minimum wage
3. Breaking up the biggest banks
4. Getting big money out of politics
5. Ban for-profit prisons
6. Tuition free public colleges and trade schools
7. Massively strengthen the labor union movement
8. Greatly improving SS and SSDI/SSI benefits
9. Making child care and pre-school affordable for all
10. Federal mandate requiring employers to provide paid vacation, overtime, parental and sick leave to all workers
Beto has yet to tell us how many individual donors contributed to that 6.1m money haul in the first 24 hours of him announcing...... Beto refuses to tell us.
He already released this. You missed the news story 3 days ago and instead accuse him of "refusing".
Beto O'Rourke says he averaged $47 per donation in his record-breaking $6.1 million fundraising haul on the first day of his presidential campaign.The former Texas congressman told reporters in New Hampshire on Wednesday that the total came from 128,000 separate donors.

Fake news. He has not released how many individual donors he got it from. He used the term "unique contributions" to come up with the 128 000 figure to pull the wool over people's eyes.
Look, the guy is swimming in cash from big oil and voted with the republicans in the House again and again despite representing one of the most democratic districts in the country. He would fit right at home in the Reagan administration. He's a 1980s republican, voted to massively increase Trump's military budget all three times it was up for a vote and claims he is for the people with nothing to back it up with except focusing on his progressiveness on social issues. The big donors dont care about the culture wars. Its merely used as a distraction.
This voting record suggests that O'Rourke is very slightly to the left of West Virginia Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin, whom President Trump has come close to nominating for a Cabinet post. In what sense, exactly, is Beto a "progressive"?
