‘Beto’ Keeps Running His Mouth About His ‘Lifelong Republican Mom.’ Um…ABOUT THAT…

At many a ‘Beto’ rally, Robert O’Rourke has brought up the fact that he convinced his ‘Lifelong Republican mother’ to vote for him.

(Wow. Good for you. Your mom’s gonna vote for you. HOW IMPRESSIVE.)

Only um… that’s as phony as his fake-Hispanic nickname.

Beto O’Rourke calls his mom a “lifelong Republican,” a politically helpful example since that’s the sort of voter he needs to convert to win in Texas.

In reality, she’s voted in Dem primaries 15 out of last 17 times & was donating to Dems back in 1983. https://t.co/1VNqjeiy4y

YOU HEARD THAT RIGHT.

According to FREAKING CNN:

Melissa O’Rourke has largely voted in Democratic primaries in Texas since 2000, and she has donated money to candidates from both parties. She donated to Cruz and Republican Mitt Romney in 2012, but she also previously donated to the presidential campaign of then-Democratic Sen. Barack Obama in 2007.

I’m sorry, but she kissed that “lifelong Republican” label GOODBYE as soon as she donated to FREAKING OBAMA.

Interestingly, ‘Beto’ ADMITS that she’s not a quite a “lifelong Republican” … or even a REPUBLICAN, for that matter.

“I introduce my mom sometimes, and I kid her a little bit, like ‘my mom’s a lifelong Republican, but we got her to vote for us in this race.’ One day, she came up to me, and she said, ‘You know, that’s just not right: I would describe myself as an independent now, not a Republican. Definitely not a Democrat.’ I don’t know what the size of that universe is, but anecdotally we’re meeting a lot of people who have described themselves that way,” Beto O’Rourke said.

BUT HE KEEPS SAYING IT ANYWAY:

Even after his comments in the BuzzFeed News story, O’Rourke continued to tout his mom as recently as on Saturday as a Republican, when he said, “I am the son of a Republican mother who we have convinced to vote for me in this election.” O’Rourke has repeatedly made similar comments in speeches, citing his “Republican mother,” so much so that the remark has a frequent line of the candidate on the stump and in a press release, according to news reports.

RIDIC.

He’s a fake who will say anything he thinks is politically expedient, and that’s really all there is to this.

Also pretty lame to use your mom as a political tool https://t.co/08LGM7HiJ5

Eh – beats using kids and the mentally ill – the Dem’s tools of choice.
