Beto was doing what he does best.... pulling a political stunt to get attention on himself.
He is an immature narcissist.

Since when do Republicans disapprove of immature narcissists????

He’s not immature or narcissistic enough for them.

He also doesn’t support shooting children.

Dealbreaker for Rs.

This is definitely the take that many republicans will not so secretly hold.

The people in this town are Mexican Americans —. Texican Americans. They are not people who came across the border anytime recently. They are not going anywhere.

That group leans right center. This will not play with them. This was a bad day for Beto. But other events may turn the tide. If I were running against him in Texas I would wait until September and go up with an ad that has Beto crashing in and the mayor saying this was no place for this conduct and Texas deserves better.

Great because then Beto could run an ad with Abbott saying Texas deserves better and O'Rourke says, "I agree and here I am."

The mayor would be saying that about Beto --- kinda does not work in reverse except for the base. This election in Texas is a fight for the middle. The middle is further right than the middle other places. Gun rights in Texas extend well into democrats as well. If I were advising Beto I would have told him to wait for the funerals to be over and deliver a major address that outlined sensible gun control for Texas. That could have made some inroads int he middle. This stunt will not.

I guess you felt it was too soon?

Politics have rules. One is you can’t as the non incumbent do anything political before funerals at the place where stuff happened. You can go somewhere else or you can wait. Incumbents can go and do stuff like Abbott was doing. Not fair but that is what the public accepts. Has not changed since 1900. Remember Beto has to convince center right independents to vote for him. They are the ones that follow the rules. An activist on the left or right says screw the rules. Their base loves it. The center never does.

Abbott and company made this totally about politic. He and the gang droned on and on about how this was a mental health issue. Yet he does nothing for mental health but makes sure sick people can buy weapons. That was one disgusting display by the governor.

The harder work - that nobody talks about - is why so many kids have nothing and nobody.

+1 It's amazing how many Republicans have no brains.

Don’t both sides this, PP. these deaths are 100% on the GOP and their voters.

WTF?
These deaths are 100% on the damn killer.

That no one flagged his very clear warnings...we see this over and over and over.

"No license or training needed"

Would you rather be hot Beto with morality on your side or sad, slothy sycophant Lyin’ Ted who has thrown his own children under the bus more than once and sold his soul long ago? The people are with hot Beto.

No. The GOP has blood on its hands. And anyone else who blocks common sense gun control.

+1000. Damn straight. The truly sick sons of bthces were Abbott, Mayor of Uvalde and the rest of the assholes who wanted to throw O'Rourke out rather than acknowledge that this country has a seriously sick and deranged gun obsession to the point where they are willing to treat the deaths of those innocent kids as accepted losses in the name of their almighty 2A.

Abbott’s remarks about the heroic law enforcement who went into the classroom made me sick. The LEOs were fully armed, wearing protective gear, and trained to do that job.

The heroes were the teachers who tried to protect the children. No mention of them.
