For as long as bullshit has existed, democrats have used the “fake conservative with a change of heart” to push their rotten agenda: The “I’m a gun owner but now I support gun control” guy, the “I have children but now I think abortion is neato” gal, and the “I’m a lifelong Republican but now I’m voting for a far left progressive” dude. Beto O’Rourke rolled out the 3rd kind but he didn’t work too hard to find someone semi-believable.
When you are trailing badly in the polls, as O’Rourke is, this is what desperation looks like:

Does anyone on the planet believe this obvious lesbian behemoth was ever a Republican and Trump supporter? I don’t even believe she’s a Texan. The lack of accent and pale skin tells me she’s from the Pacific Northwest and probably a member of Antifa.
This liar is even less convincing when she explains why she switched from Republican to democrat. Basically what she’s saying is that the GOP platform of gun rights and pro-life made her become a democrat. If she hates guns and loves abortion so much, why was she ever a Republican in the first place?
It should be noted that Beto O’Rourke is running against Greg Abbott for Texas Governor and yet this fake video makes it seem like Trump is his opponent. Why didn’t the thing in his video lie that she voted for Abbott but is now planning to vote for O’Rourke? The reason is because everyone on the left still has TDS and they think Trump fear-mongering will excite their base.
Clearly O’Rourke’s base of supporters is such a collection of freaks and weirdos if this was the most “convincing” former Republican they could find. Seriously, is there no one who backs Beta O’Dork who can pass for a normal person?
Just for fun, let’s pretend that this thing really was a Trump-supporting Republican who has now decided to switch parties and vote for O’Rourke. So what? Is that supposed to make other Republicans suddenly abandon everything they stand for and become a radical leftist? I’ve never understood this democratic party ploy.
The thing is, one of these types of ruses would work for Republicans. In fact, Citizens for Sanity is using a similar principal to great effect:

The only difference is these Citizen’s for Sanity joke ads are clearly sarcastic, pointing out how awful democrats are. Beto O’Rourke’s fake former Republican is asking us to take her seriously when she’s a joke.
