Beto O'Rourke says he would require his Cabinet to hold monthly town hall meetings if he were to be elected president in 2020

Beto O'Rourke said Monday he would require his Cabinet to hold monthly town hall meetings if he is elected president in 2020.

The former Texas congressman said he would sign an executive order on his first day in office requiring the town halls"to listen to you and to be accountable to you so that we deliver for you." "Not a handpicked audience. Not a theatrical production. But a real, live, town hall meeting -- not just to answer questions, but to be held accountable," O'Rourke told progressive activists at the We the People Summit in Washington.

I’m sure they will love that. Cause they won’t be busy enough.

Take it easy BETO you don’t have a chance of winning in 2020.

Can his Cabinet ask about the time he perpetrated a DUI hit and run? Or about how he joined city council in an attempt to help his Billionaire father in-law demolish a Hispanic neighborhood to build a strip mall? Or will they be expected to be as obedient and loyal as US media?

I like that idea, that way they would truly have the pulse of the American people..

Non productive meetings are politically better than committing to solving America’s problems

Right until he gets elected then they'll be 'too busy' 😂😂😂

Oh yes, they all make promises. It will never happen. And voters fall for it. Promises

Monthly meetings to see which ways he’ll let the illegal aliens in? No thanks.

He’s like the boss you never wanted. The guy who has no idea how to lead or do his job but he wants to have daily meetings to make sure nobody has any questions. What a fucking idiot........

They will be even more unproductive than they are now

Who pays for that?

LIAR

Oh good Lord.

Just chatter

We won't have to worry about it, at all.

Viva Beto? Don’t you liberals call what he’s doing cultural appropriation? Also, I think he’s using the fake n bake to look Hispanic.

Beyond inane. 'The people' will not be getting into any such meetings. This will be mostly hand-picked members of activist groups, PAC's and other connected orgs. Especially those who get to ask questions. And monthly Unrealistic. Naïve. Unserious thinking.

Presumptuous

What a bull crap artist. Nothing but empty and phony pladitudes!!

Let’s check the polls today...

He could hold the meetings in his cabinet's kindergarten class every month!

How about working on the issues instead of useless pr stunts.

If and only if.

No fear. He will not be elected

Repeat after me his name is Robert Francis

lol! What a shot in the foot. He's a brain surgeon alright...

More time wasted by govt employees. Sounds like a plan.

I won't be VOTING for this BETO CLOWN he is not MATURE ENOUGH of a MAN to be PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA that's for DAMN SHORE

Sure. Just like the Obama administrations promise to be “ transparent”.

He’s going nowhere fast ...

He is going to fall off a table one of these days. And it will be hillarious.

That outta do it. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

천리마는 항상 있다, 그러나 백락(같은 사람)은 늘 있는 것이 아니다.There will be lots of stallions in the grassland. A superb cavalier, however, is rare.

Think you guys should give a rough draft on how you would persue the health care act if you were elected...

This guy really has zero ability to come up with his own policy ideas and is instead looking to win over the ignorance of people

Cool, can they be pep rallies held at high school stadiums? And we need a mascot too. Gotta have a mascot. And how about bake sales? Is that too much? Huh? Can we have bake sales too?

We need young leaders like you, this is a new era, it’s time to take care of our future by electing younger ppl. TheDemocrats Twitter GOP realDonaldTrump foxandfriends

I think that's a great idea!

LMAO. I went to the link to read the article and low & behold right at the top was an advertisement trying to persuade you to join the US Border Patrol. LMAO

Congratulations US. You got your own ArvindKejriwal 👏👏

Nonsense 🙄 they’ll be too busy with their work to hold monthly meetings.

Fantastic!

Why? He don’t need to engage in that. If by chance he does win the presidency all you he has to do is go to work and be transparent. We don’t need a present constantly in front of the camera. We need a president in the “Oval Office” sitting at the resolute desk working.

Can anyone imagine even in a very dark nightmare that Beto has a cabinet. AYE YAE YAE

So whos going to out do that? Seems like they are playing Name That Tune with proposals. Is Bernie going to do one every 3 days?

Pretty feeble Beto! Is that as good as it gets for our coubtry? Monthly town hall meetings by your cabinet. Your candidacy is already DOA!! Adios, comprende?

Why not, realDonaldTrump has klan meetings at least 1 a month since elected. Now I don't think he's a racist, but just look at some of the hillrats at his 'rallies' and you can see why people think this and lump everyone together.

Thank you god!

Lol ok I guess idiots would like that then what's Congress job then? But that's just me

Craving attention on a monthly basis? Maybe he should be a Rock 🎸 Star, that will do it. Or give him a babysitter.

Vanilla latte Obama. Pass.

They All say exactly what you want to hear, but actually doing it is another story😕

Analysis | Beto O’Rourke’s presidential campaign can’t be like his Senate campaignHis near miss left the Texan with a belief that he didn’t maximize his opportunities.
