Beto exploits tragedy for sake of politics NY Post, Aug 4, 2019, Miranda Devine
The bodies in El Paso were barely cold when Beto O’Rourke started blaming President Trump.
“He is a racist, and he stokes racism in this country . . . We have a president with white nationalist views in the United States today,†the failing Democratic presidential candidate told CNN all Saturday night and Sunday.
He likened Trump’s “anti-immigrant rhetoric†to something out of the Third Reich. “He is an open, avowed racist and is encouraging more racism in this country and this is incredibly dangerous . . .
“Let’s connect the dots here on . . . who is responsible for this right now.†CNN’s Jake Tapper cut to the chase: “Do you think President Trump is a white nationalist?â€
What disgusting opportunism from a man whose first recorded reaction to the news of Saturday’s massacre in his hometown was a weird smile, quickly supressed, a man so lacking in empathy, he once wrote of his teenage fantasy of plowing his car into two children crossing the road.
But when it comes to publicity for his ridiculous presidential bid, he’s never had it so good. CNN can’t get enough of him.
It doesn’t get uglier than scoring political points on the deaths of 20 people.
