Beto O'Rourke: 'I'd take the wall down'

Potential 2020 p**********l hopeful Beto O’Rourke said if it were up to him, there would be no border wall in El Paso, Texas.
O’Rourke, a Democratic former Texas congressman and candidate for Senate, responded in an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes Thursday to a question tweeted by Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas), who asked whether O’Rourke would make the city’s border wall disappear if he could.
“Absolutely,” O’Rourke said without hesitation.
“I’d take the wall down,” O’Rourke said, adding that the barrier has “not in any demonstrable way made us safer.”
O’Rourke said the existing wall “has pushed migrants and asylum seekers and refugees to the most inhospitable, the most hostile stretches of the U.S.-Mexico border ensuring their suffering and death.”

O’Rourke, a fierce opponent of President Donald Trump’s fear-mongering on immigration, vehemently opposes Trump’s plan to declare a national emergency to build his promised border wall after failing to gain congressional approval.
“It’s hard to make a rational case for an emergency declaration or troops on the border or any amount of additional border wall or border fencing or steel slats,” O’Rourke said.
O’Rourke held a Trump counter-rally in El Paso on Monday during the president’s visit to the city.

Hopefully, that announcement will “end any hopes he has of furthering his political career!”

“Beto” O’Rourke
According to the urban dictionary Beto is defined as “A Hispanic male or Hispanic d**e who thinks they can get any girl they want. Usually a high school dropout and bald.”
Except for the baldness, he pretty much matches the description and seems like he is well-suited to be a member of the Democrat Party

See that tiny speck in the distance? That's his P**********l aspirations flying away, as far and as fast as they can. I really, really hope he gets the Democrat nomination.

Maxine Waters could be the best candidate. She rallies all the thugs on the streets around the country.
