Well who is then nikka :martin:

It dont seem to be anyone whose name ive ever heard of :patrice:
Re-read those tweets. Which centrist candidate like Beto is going to seriously try and make an attempt to stop what is happening? There isn't enough desperation because they are so in bed with big money. They just killed the green new deal Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal Committee Is Winning Even In Defeat

Do you think the current Dem leadership and the resistance libs on twitter that love cops/incrementalism are capable of taking on fascism, climate change that is destroying the planet? When push comes to shove, they are going to defend capital & property over the people.

Climate disasters induced by the us over the decades have disrupted life in central america and have been a major cause of the economic devastation that has led to massive immigration and refugee crises at the border. fascists use this to fear monger as you know. the context for why poor people are fleeing their countries with shytty economies and climate change is the last thing pundits want to talk about :francis:

if we don't have someone who can seriously combat all of this then we're screwed. No one wants to watch some centrist democrat do a West Wing cosplay and "get things done" under the guise of bi-partisanship while half of the US population struggles with no health care and not enough money for an emergency savings because of low pay at their job:francis:

These folks thought the left was gonna subside by now. Too fukking bad.

The evisceration of the Beto mystique is going to be :blessed:

Beto gets the millennial women going with predatory capitalism :whew:

Pointing out his voting record doesn't negate him from winning does it? You're free to support a guy for the banks, big oil and against government medical coverage.

The Democratic Party is collapsing. The coalition cannot hold. There is absolutely no natural reason for progressives to be in the same political body as centrists. Disenfranchisement of the former by the latter has been the status quo, and former has had enough.

It's really fukked up that Bernie and his cabal of corrupt reporters made beto vote with Republicans all those times.
For example: O’Rourke co-sponsored and voted for a GOP-led bill in 2015 to repeal a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rule aiming to shield consumers from racial discrimination by auto lenders; a 2015 study showed that black car owners were often charged hundreds of dollars more than white car owners due to paying higher interest rates.


O’Rourke also voted for some extremely pro-cop bullshyt multiple times throughout his House career. One bill O’Rourke and 47 other House Democrats voted for, which was dubbed the Thin Blue Line Act, added killing a police officer to “the list of aggravating factors” to justify a death penalty sentence in federal cases. In June of last year, O’Rourke voted to waive polygraph test requirements for Customs and Border Patrol agents, which CBP was using in an attempt to root out the widespread corruption throughout the agency. O’Rourke’s reasoning for voting for the bill was that these anti-corruption measures were just slowing down the CBP’s hiring too much.

In all, during the past two years—where Trump’s presidency and O’Rourke’s tenure in the House overlapped—O’Rourke voted with Trump nearly 30 percent of the time, according to FiveThirtyEight. That’s about 12 percent more than he’s expected to given the makeup of his district.

If your response to all of this is, “He’s a Congressman from Texas,” Hillary Clinton won O’Rourke’s district by 40 points in 2016, and the district has had a Democratic member of Congress for all but two years of its 100+ year existence. If your response is, “You sicko radical left Bernie Bros are at it again!!!,” damn. You got me.
