Cruz ate this liberal piece of shit alive. Beto is a fucking hack
What a load of BS, Democratic senators disagree in voting all the time, Republicans on the other hand are quick to bring out the torches and RINO labels everytime one misses the lockstep.

It's just another hoax perpetrated by the GOP on idiot voters once the party realized that fear mongering about guns suddenly had traction when a black guy was in office and they could say he was a gun-grabbing atheist communist Muslim Hitler and God-fearing folks needed to defend themselves from the imminent takeover.
No meaningful legislation was passed in the area of firearms in the past three Democratic administrations. And, of the five modern laws that revised gun rights, three were passed under Republican administrations (Reagan/GHW) and two were passed in Clinton's first term. And IIRC only one of those bills (the Assault Weapons Ban) didn't have receive a majority of Republican votes.
Governor or President W?Cruz sounds just like W. Maybe slightly less stupid
The one major issue I have with Beto is he once to port the no fly list into a no gun list. That idea and its progeny are horrible ideas. There can be reaonsed debate on all the other gun control issues he believes in. There is no merit whatsoever into letting the government put you a list without notice to you and then you having to spend years fighting to get off it to exercise a constitutional right.
So who won?
I don’t think you know what the word legit meansRafael is already panic wrestling in state, they've been jumping all over themselves to try and paint Beto as out of touch with Texas. Dude legit tried to insinuate that Beto would try and ban BBQ.
Beto is supposedly racking in cash fro CaliforniaThe fact that he has outraised Cruz without taking PAC money is a pretty good talking point. I'm not watching, but it should be brought up, considering Cruz has spent decades cultivating lucrative donor ties by passing indefensible pro-corporate policies and shilling for corporate interests.
Cruz's shameless stances on climate change and net neutrality in the past should have gained him a lifetime unlimited cash flow from fossil fuel and telecom.
He's from El Paso...
Probably half of his House constituents have family and friends who are undocumented.
I mean, no one was really unsure what your appraisal would be.
Truthfully, I've been stunned by how unimpressive Cruz has been in debates during his career. He had a legitimate claim to being the best debater in the country at one time, but he's been routinely made to look foolish, incoherent, contradictory, and insincere by his Republican colleagues and by Bernie Sanders. I guess competitive debate and policy debate just don't translate as well as one would guess.
I didn’t see this debate (was busy searching obscure wrestlers on Wwe network) but had a serious realization dawn on me thinking about it:
What in the blue hell are debates supposed to prove? I mean, when you think about it, is being witty and quick with a comeback in the top... I don’t know... 100 skills a person needs to be a good president/ Senator, whatever?
It’s entertainment, pure and simple.
What they should be doing is writing abstracts on their platform agenda and policy positions, and voters should be deciding based on that.
But, lol, no. This is America! We’re going to vote based on a battle rap!
Good. Small donations too.Beto is supposedly racking in cash fro California
I agree with you on this position, even though there is definitively some merit: the merit being expediency in times of crisis.
For Democrats this the perfect situation if Beto wins they can celebrate a game changing situation , or if he loses they can say deep red area an still made it interesting. In their book it's a win win.
