OK, the feminazi bullshit is repulsive.
But this is right, I think.
No, it’s not Beto’s loss last year that bothers me, it’s his entitlement.
His certainty that he’s qualified for the most powerful job in the world despite his lack of experience.
His belief that he is qualified for the role despite the fact that he himself has absolutely no idea what he stands for.
“I don’t know where I am on a [political] spectrum and I almost could care less,” Beto recently boasted during a stop in Wisconsin.
I’ll tell you where Beto is on the political spectrum: he’s wherever it’s most convenient for him to be.
Remind you of someone with orange hair?
But surely he's not less qualified than Bozo?
Maybe not, but surely that's way too low a bar?
He announced his presidential bid by talking about the environment but his six-year record in Congress shows him to be a friend of the fossil fuel industry.
His voting record is characterized by flip-flopping and he is vague about his position on healthcare and raising taxes.
The only strong conviction he really seems to have is that he deserves to be president.
“Man, I’m just born to be in it,” he recently enthused to Vanity Fair.
I think he was referring to the race, and he is a good campaigner who loves to campaign.
I was going to say campaigning isn't governing, but Bozo has taught us governing is campaigning, so never mind.
But anyway she just can't help it.
Even when she's pretty much right.
Ultimately, what might be most frustrating about Beto is that we all know someone like him.
He’s the guy in the meeting who hasn’t done any of the work but who repeats a woman’s points and immediately gets a round of applause and a promotion.
He’s the guy who pays eloquent lip service to the importance of diversity, but would never go so far as conceding a woman might be better qualified for a job than him.
He’s the epitome of mediocre white male confidence.
And if there is one thing America does not need at the moment, it’s more mediocre white guys running things.
