Stupid comment and he probably killed his chances. But stupid isn’t limited to that stage, as Trump complained the light bulbs we are being forced to us make him look orange.

I love his resume...you couldn't make this up

After graduation, O'Rourke worked as a live-in caretaker and art mover before working for an Internet service provider run by his uncle. He later took a position at H. W. Wilson Company as a proofreader, and wrote short stories and songs in his free time.

O'Rourke returned to El Paso in 1998. At first, he was working with computers as an inventory tracker at his mother's upscale furniture store and living in an apartment building owned by his father. O'Rourke said he wanted to address "brain-drain", or the exodus of youth caused by lack of opportunity. In 2000, he co-founded Stanton Street Technology Group, an Internet services and software company. With O'Rourke himself unable to obtain a loan, his father took out a $20,000 loan on his behalf. The company's first client was O'Rourke's mother's furniture store.

Beto and Amy O'Rourke are estimated to have a net worth of $4 million, acquired as gifts from their well-to-do parents.

brain drain

So he’s eminently qualified?
The Times concluded that Donald Trump "was a millionaire by age 8", and that he had received at least $413 million (adjusted for inflation) from his father's business empire over his lifetime. According to the Times, Trump borrowed at least $60 million from his father, and largely failed to reimburse him.

trump's net worth is 3 billion

beto's net worth is still the 4 million his parents gave him(I don't know if that's adjusted for inflation)

And yes you'll losse your guns eventually because the only steps you took to keep them was redefining the Constitution.. and yelling confiscation..and that some how you have the right to own military weapons.. but Omg vaping and marketing towards children needs to be addressed .. before gun industry and gun lobby market guns to children ..

No, he is not saying he is going to give citizens the option to turn in firearms, he is saying he will go in and take them.

I don't own any military weapons. But go ahead and move the conversation to vaping.

BTW - I'll sell mine (price in 2018 dollars):
