He wants Beto O'Rourke disqualified for a name change. Why not Abbott for allowing Texans' deaths?

[egbertowillies]

A Politics Done Right caller said Beto O’Rourke, the Democratic Candidate for Texas Governor, should be disqualified for his ‘name change.’ What about a governor who causes the deaths of Texans?

1. The asshole is as dumb as he sounds..

Beto and my son were on the same Little League team..he was Beto when he was a child and he's Beto now...it's a Texas border city thing...

2. Straining WAY too hard to find a excuse to vote for an asshole

... can make you sound like an asshole.

6. El Paso, Beto's hometown, is unique, isolated

we are part of Texas and we are apart from Texas..512 miles to Austin..30 miles to Las Cruces, New Mexico...because El Paso is predominately Hispanic, our cultures, Hispanic/Anglo intertwine...and that's why Robert is Beto, Frank is Pancho, Guillermo is Willie, Jesus is Chuy, a fifth child carrying the family first and last name is Cinco..

as you said, when Trump-humper idiots cite a nickname as rationale for their no vote, they should apply the same moronic reasoning to Robert/Bob, Charles/Chuck, Elizabeth/Betty/Lizzie, William/Bill, Margaret/Maggie, James/Jim...

8. Don't forget Mitch

3. So, I guess the caller feels the same about

Rafael "Ted" Cruz, Piyush "Bobby" Jindal and Nimrata "Nikki" Hailey.

4. Yah, BURN.... as long as all the same rules apply.

NAH, Beto is worth all of those and then some.

[William Seger]

7. But he said it was about changing a name for POLITICAL reasons

Oh, wait... never mind.

5. Does that mean "Ted" (Rafael) Cruz is disqualified??😂😂😂😂😂

9. Lol dude apparently doesn't understand nicknames or diminutives.

10. And lest we forget... Donald tRump's family was Drumpf in "the old country" Germany

But that was more of the US "Americanizing it's immigrants" than the immigrant's choice.

STILL Grandfather Frederick Drumpf left the country to avoid a draft...

His paternal granddad — who came to America at 16 with little more than a name he later changed — lived a true rags-to-riches life, leaving his widow and three kids a modest fortune when he died, new records show.

Fred Trump, born Friedrich Drumpf, in Kallstadt, Germany, in 1869, had an estate worth $500,000 in today’s dollars when he died in Queens on May 30, 1918, at age 49.

One of those documents was Frederick Trump’s naturalization form, on which his signature was rendered “Trump.”

Grandpa Frederick Drumf, later Trump, emigrated from his native Germany to avoid military service:, CNN skates around the issue:

Donald Trump's grandfather was kicked out of his native Germany for failing to do his mandatory military service there, a historian has claimed.

A local council letter from 1905 informed Friedrich Trump -- who had become a United States citizen -- that he would not be granted his German citizenship back and that he had eight weeks to leave the country or be deported, German historian Roland Paul told CNN Tuesday.
He also claimed that Trump had illegally left Germany, failing to notify authorities of his plan to immigrate.
