O'Rourke admits he's an 'A**hole' and apologizes to his staff for being one

In an article by the Daily Caller, 2020 presidential candidate Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke apologized to his campaign staff for being a "giant asshole" at times when he was running for the Senate against Ted Cruz.

It takes a big man to admit that he's a big a**hole but a small man to try qualifying it by adding "at times."

The Democratic Party's HBO site has a documentary premiering Tuesday called "Running with Beto." In the propaganda piece, O’Rourke is gathered with a group of campaign staffers to thank them before giving his concession speech after losing to Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in the 2018 midterm election.

“I just feel very, very lucky, and I love you guys more than you’ll ever know,” O’Rourke said in the video obtained by The Daily Beast. “I know I was a giant asshole to be around sometimes, and you all never allowed my shortcomings to get in the way of running the best campaign this state has ever seen.”

His other shortcomings are too long to mention, but a few of them are: a) his belief that people are interested seeing him getting his teeth cleaned at the dentist; b) his belief that people are interested seeing him get a haircut; c) his belief that free schools and free healthcare are free; d) his belief that writing a murder fantasy [that came out in March] in which the narrator runs down children in the street will bode well with the voters; and e) his belief that we are interested in his visit to a proctologist to prove that he is, indeed, an a**hole.

Cynthia Cano, his road manager, is seen giving a slight nod of agreement after O'Rourke calls himself a “giant asshole,” the Beast reported.

Beto's persona

O’Rourke was also exposed in a Reuters report as a member of one of the U.S.’s biggest hacking groups, called the “Cult of the Dead Cow.” He has also bragged about eating dirt after his Senate loss, and getting feces from his son's diaper and giving it to his wife as he tried to convince her that it was a green avocado.

Yes, this O'Rourke is a big a**hole but more importantly, he's a tad freaking crazy. He makes for a great progressive but a lousy president, which I strongly believe will never happen.
