Beto smacks down NRA on Twitter

On a day where Beto goes to an Arkansas Gun Show to share his gun control plan and bring some from the other side into the light and then gives a rousing speech at a Moms Demand Rally, Beto tops off the day with this response to the NRA

Beto needs a little polish, and a more relaxed presentation, but he shows great promise. A Biden-Beto ticket would give Trump nightmares.

I've said in forums before. We need one or more candidates with low numbers to stay in and just stalk the hell out of Trump. Figuratively the way that T stood behind Hillary at the debates. It would be great if we had at least two. One to show up the day before one of his rallies and one to show up the day after. Hell. Beto could do both. Say Trump is coming to Hickory Indiana. Beto shows up the day after. Maybe Amy Klobuchar shows up the day before. Just shadow his fat ass and attack attack attack with no apologies, no mercy. ( Also. Congratulations for the most imbeds ever in DU POST. )

Of course if Beto was our nominee, I would support him for the Presidency, but I would argue against such a policy.

He is sincerely passionate about the need to do something about gun violence.

The other Democratic candidates need to pay attention to what Beto is saying. He has seen the horror of gun violence and he has had enough. The other Democratic candidates need to understand that a lot of us have also had enough.

DO SOMETHING!
