They display the same patterns of fear and bullying when they are threatened. It happened with AOC too. They are threatened by Beto because anyone running is better than Individual 1.
Beta, like some Democrats, doesn't believe in the US Constitution. Faults it for being 230 years old. Seems quite bizarre for someone being groomed by the Democrats to be their future leader, but it is what it is.
Throughout the two-hour interview — which was often interrupted by bystanders urging him to run for president — O’Rourke boomeranged between a bright-eyed hope that the United States will soon dramatically change its approach to a whole host of issues and a dismal suspicion that the country is now incapable of implementing sweeping change.
When asked which it is, O’Rourke paused.
“I’m hesitant to answer it because I really feel like it deserves its due, and I don’t want to give you a — actually, just selfishly, I don’t want a sound bite of it reported, but, yeah, I think that’s the question of the moment: Does this still work?” O’Rourke said. “Can an empire like ours with military presence in over 170 countries around the globe, with trading relationships…and security agreements in every continent, can it still be managed by the same principles that were set down 230-plus years ago?”
Trump was as politically aware as a sack of rocks. Didn't stop him from being elected.
However, like it or not, Trump actually achieved something prior to seeking public office.
Little Robbie FauxRourke, on the other hand, is an accomplishment-free zone. His landmark achievement appears to be having worn a dress while playing in a band, and livestreaming a visit to the dentist.
FauxRourke is merely the answer to a question nobody asked.
I won’t call you what I thought of you when I read your post. Beto was on the El Paso City Council for several years. He was a U.S Representative from Texas for 3 Terms.
Beto is articulate and smart.
Unlike Trump, he hasn’t paid prostitutes to “dance” on his hotel bed in Moscow.
Beta, like some Democrats, doesn't believe in the US Constitution.
That's not what he said. You didn't even read your own link. LMAO

I have a vision of Thomas Jefferson waking up at 3 a.m. sometime in 1793, smacking his forehead and crying out: "#$%@!!! We forgot something!"

You can't even interpret his words correctly, and you're telling someone else they don't "get it"?
That's hilarious.

So which principles do you want to throw out because they are 230 years old? i.e. Tear it up because the Constitution is a list of principles.
That's a question, not a statement. Even someone with your deep intelligence and unfailing ability to perceive the intended meaning of someone's words should know the difference.

Tearing something up is just another way of saying scrapping or ditching something
He didn't say that, either.

I doubt he’s read it, let alone understand it.
Too many big words in there for Trump to understand - you know, like "shall not" and stuff.

Most populous state: Virginia; 747,610
