Quote:
During a rally in Georgetown, Texas, on Tuesday, for Republican Senator Ted Cruz, a supporter shouted “Lock him up” in reference to Cruz’s opponent, Beto O’Rourke. Cruz replied that O’Rourke could share a cell with former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Cruz needs to work on his trash-talk. Neither O'Rourke nor Clinton are going to prison any time soon.

No, no, no! That's cruel and unusual punishment, forbidden by the Constitution!

Lock O'Rourke up for what? Seriously, the GOP is letting the mask of democracy slip off more and more everyday, and is allowing the fascism beneath go public. In what democracy - or Republic for you literalists out there - do people get locked up just for being political opponents?

Likely the same one that encourages political allies to body-slam journalists and mail explosive devices to political opponents.

Who encouraged political allies to mail explosive devices to political opponents? I'd like to hear or read that from the person who issued it.

They are probably referring to the DWI that Beto supposedly walked away from.

On the radio, they said he calls himself "Beto" to sound Hispanic.

His real name is Robert Francis O'Rourke.

Cruz's real name is Rafael, but he hoped the name Ted would make him appear white.

Ted is just the shortened form of his middle name (Eduardo).

I recently saw a video where a guy from Campus Reform asked some college students why they were voting for O'Rourke. None of them had any idea what his platform was: https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11425

This is funny and sad at the same time.

I know you liberals hate Campus Reform.
