Beto O'Rourke reveals that he and his wife are descended from slave owners

[basquebromance]

we forgive you, Beto!

O'Rourke says he and his wife are descended from slave owners

 

[Dogmaphobe]

Does this mean he's learning to speak ebonics?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

So if he wasn't already an asshole white apologist...............

 

[MarathonMike]

So we can expect Beto and Kamala to lead by example and pay their fair share of Reparations.

Why should beto be forgiven and statues and paintings of Washington be defaced or destroyed

 

[Jitss617]

I think he is bragging

To quote a famous groper:
"They wanna put y'all back in chains".

Yeah I'm "white" & I need a professional tooth-pulling apologist in Congress. Yuck.

Anyways I am part Swedish, and years ago I was a foreign exchange student in Sweden, and some of the Swedes explained to me that because I am not 100% blonde & blue-eyed, actually brown hair / green eyes, I am actually part Hispanic, and I met some blood relatives with Spanish family names, but they would have left Spain and assimilated into Swedish culture hundreds of years ago.

Beto O'Rourke is such a pathetic excuse for a politician. I'm only half white as I'm 50% Hispanic and I find his white apologist pandering disgusting and quite offensive to minorities.

I really feel like Beto would throw himself in front of a bus for us

There’s nobody who’s more earnest.

I trust beto—I will follow him over a cliff

If it'd get him votes he would. Call him Jamal if it helps!

Actually doesn't that disqualify them outright?
