The party’s over for some Willie Nelson fans.

After the Texas music icon announced that he’ll headline a Sept. 29 Austin rally for Democrat Beto O’Rourke — who is challenging Republican Ted Cruz for a seat in the U.S. Senate — fans began speaking out about the 85-year-old musician.

Some were quick to throw their support behind Nelson, who said O’Rourke “embodies what is special about Texas.”

Others wanted the Red-Headed Stranger to know they’ve had enough.

“Goodbye Willie,” David R. Williams wrote on Facebook. “I don’t support socialist commies! You’re not going to advertise on my FB page either.

“Like we say in Texas, Now Git.”

O'Rourke is special, all right. A special kind of stupid.

    Sure, @roamer_1 I'd smoke weed with Willie. 
    He's probably more interesting than getting stoned with my rescue Lab, who incidentally claims to have cataracts and has a valid script from the Vet.

They're calling it the Beto Bong. Beto O'Rourke has now directly associated himself with illegals drug use. In TEXAS no less! This is a gift from heaven for Cruz.

Nobody in Texas smokes weed? What? I doubt very many Cruz voters smoke weed.

Who's calling it that? Just some blurb on the internet hardly means anything.

I doubt there is this merchandise out there in any kind of official capacity, Beto store: https://store.betofortexas.com/  I don't see it, if some shop is selling something like this, that's just them.
