Rachel Maddow reports on a dramatic Republican political ad criticizing Beto O'Rourke, possibly for the purposes of tricking Democrats into favoring him, but equally likely to boost him to a degree that would be problematic for a Republican 2020 opponent.

maddow What does mad cow know?

skeller85 maddow It's the JFK problem all over again. Beto is everything trumpery isn't and donald has nothing but his widening ass and corruption as a counter.

maddow Club for Growth president David McIntosh said. “We have internal polling that shows that Trump and Beto are statistically tied in Texas in a presidential head-to-head, and that's hugely significant,' 'You'll notice we didn't do ads on the 16 other candidates.'

maddow When conspiracy fables morph into complex paranoia.

maddow GOP running scared as they will lose it all in 2020

maddow Who?

maddow Come to Tx...he's a joke. Ask anyone not driving a Prius.

maddow Again, no surprise. Clearly, the GOP has had direct lessons from Fox News and Russians on spreading lies and leveraging media to gaslight and capitalize on the fears and emotions of Americans. We ALL need to embrace and protect journalists (like maddow) who dig for truth.

maddow I don't under any circumstances see any form of trickery or conniving at all, it seems as though you're reading something into this that doesn't even exist,

maddow MSLSD

maddow Note,,Repubs + Dems are the same,, its bad cop good cop...get it or are you built to low

maddow I LOVE BETO. PLEASE RUN IN 2020

maddow Here is the Irishman with a Spanish nickname.

maddow

maddow I doubt that he will be trouble for DJT

maddow Fear the young Democrats...run and hide Republicans

maddow There isn’t one democrat that is troubling.

maddow Beto is the answer!!

maddow Possibly. Maybe. Could be. Sources say. Im seeing a pattern here

maddow What has he accomplished besides riding a skateboard and losing a Senate election? Genuine question.

maddow And like the way Trump supporters don’t care how vile Trump is! The same is true for Beto supporters! Love Beto! He can do NO WRONG in my book!!

maddow Lol. Why does everyone think he is capable of anything. He lost to an unpopular Ted Cruz.

maddow Or hurting his polling and boasting Bernie2020

maddow Bad publicity + Publicity = Recognition

maddow Democrats are so far left from the majority of the people in this country they have zero chance of winning in 2020!

maddow He's a bit of a freak...

maddow

maddow I’m sure she’ll start her monologue with some story about a gas station attendant in 1957 and take it from there...it will only take 25 minutes to get to a point she could make in 2.

maddow 100 percent biased news

maddow The GOP is afraid of losing TX according to this politico piece. JohnCornyn expected to join in 'Cornyn aides have been working with the RNC to set up an ambitious field program in the state.' Glad they're afraid - disgusted by the smear campaign.

maddow Ahhhhh what!!

maddow That makes no sense when Beto had John Cornyn sweating bullets in TX. That wasn’t a scare tactic to somehow trick democrats. Trump is below 50% in TX, pure & simple. Only Beto has the volunteers & energy to beat Trump there. If TX goes blue, Dems win. Sad Rachel bias/conspiracy.

maddow Oh, like you did to Trump?! Pied piper strategy?

maddow BIDEN - President BETO. - Vice President

maddow Well, while fighting to be the nominee it's tough not 2 have some eating of their own going on. Just like the battle between new & old Dems. POTUS & the Repubs would be crazy not to egg it on & point it out some. Whatcha gonna do?

maddow That makes alot of sense. Not.

maddow Can't Maddow ever just report some regular news instead of always these dramas that aren't dramas? This is so ridiculous!

maddow A ‘Republican 2020 opponent’? Does that firebrand Kasich still have the Donald firmly in his sights? Spare me.

maddow I’m sure she’ll star her monologue with some story about a gas station attendant in 1957 and take it from there.

maddow BetoORourke is a Centrist who's voted against his own party as much as Benedict Arnold JoeManchinWV

maddow OMG!! The horror!! You can't decide how to throw the Republicans under the bus! FakeNews

maddow Maddow is not right.

maddow Or the republicans have something on O'Rourke
