The Note: Trump show upstaged by Beto O'Rourke and congressional realities

President Donald Trump marched into El Paso Monday night, ready to go to battle on the border wall and against an emerging foe.

But just moments before Trump took the stage, congressional negotiators cut a dealthat cut him out. And the foe whose hometown he was in was leading El Paso as it marched back at an outdoor rally just down the road.

“We stand for America, and we stand against walls,” said Beto O’Rourke, who was until six weeks ago a congressman from El Paso.
