#1 Won't matter one bit - they'll keep pushing Ted Kennedy III regardless.

#2 They'll just interview him in front of a teleprompter fed by his handler.

#3 A fake diagnosis of Sickle Cell Anemia could put him well over the top.

#5 So what should be done to address visa overstays?

"I don’t know," O’Rourke said, pausing in a lengthy interview.

Idiot. The answer to that question is simple. When the visa expires, it triggers a computer program to check a database to determine whether or not the holder of the visa has left the country. If not, send agents to deport his ass. And then, that person never receives another visa to enter this country. And then, if they are subsequently caught in this country without a visa, they do hard jail time and then get deported again. But, with a wall, it'd be harder for them to get back here.

#6 But, of course, the point is that Beto is an idiot and a lightweight to boot. He couldn't win a Senate seat in his home state. Lightweight.

Dad was a Judge and Father-in-law's a billionaire. Forbes tries hard to disprove that but then says: "As for Sanders —it's unlikely, though possible, that he's a billionaire. Without more info in his deals, we can’t know how well Sanders has managed the proceeds from his paydays, how much personal debt he’s taken on, or what he’s really worth. Based on the public information that Forbes has reviewed, Beto O’Rouke’s “billionaire” father-in-law is more likely to have a net worth in the neighborhood of $500 million."

So, like his emulative Kennedy clan. Born with the silver spoon planted in one or another orifice

#9 A slick politician of Cork,
Sodomitically porked with a spork,
Lit out for New York
Just ahead of the stork
To establish the family O'Rourke.

I got nuthin. Just wanted to chuck that image back at you, gingerly-like.
