It would be nice if MSM asked him, especially as Beto and Trump are scheduled to hold rallies in El Paso around the same time.
Thehill.com tells us this: O'Rourke to headline counter-Trump rally at border. To wit:
Former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas) will headline a rally on Monday in El Paso at the same time that President Trump is set to hold a rally there.
O'Rourke will join rally-goers in El Paso to "show the country the reality of the border," according to a statement released by his office Friday.
“Beto O’Rourke will join with his city on Monday evening to show the country the reality of the border -- a vibrant, safe, binational community that proudly celebrates its culture, history, diversity and status as a city of immigrants,” the statement said.
To catch up on "the reality of the border," perhaps Beto should take a look at these two articles from sources generally not especially Trump friendly: Border Patrol catch 325 migrants, including 32 unaccompanied CHILDREN, who sneaked through unsecured Mexico barrier after group lit campfire to cope with freezing temperatures; and U.S. Border Patrol Overwhelmed by Large Groups of Migrant Families.
Meanwhile, Jim Clifton at the Gallop Chairman's Blog asks this: What If There Were 42 Million at the Border?, citing poll results about which "the Gallup analytics estimate is that 42 million want to come to the U.S."
