O’Rourke is such a fucking moron. What kind of pants-on-head, helmet-wearing, short-bus riding, genetic defect of a village idiot tells people in Texas, “Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47”? And it’s going to be even worse now, because more and more Democratic-leaning voters own firearms than did in 2019. It’s so goddamn infuriating, because by every possible metric, Cruz is a godawful human and has zero principles.
If Dems dropped gun and magazine restrictions/bans entirely, and never brought it up again, they could peel off significant numbers of single-issue Republicans, just like Republicans could peel off a lot of single-issue Democrats is they entirely dropped abortion/birth control restrictions/bans. (And, in both cases, you’re better off addressing root causes.)
so it has been 6 years since Beto, he got close, hopefully his new guy makes it
