“Despite Tapper's repeated attempts to get Margo to take a stance on Trump's alleged racism, the Mayor shut him down. "Former Congressman from El Paso, Beto O'Rourke, told me earlier in the show that, in his view, the president's anti-immigrant rhetoric is making things worse and creating an atmosphere of violence. Do you agree? Do you have any concerns about the things President Trump says about immigrants?" Tapper asked. "Jake, I'm not qualified to make a comment on that. I'm not a talking head. I'm focusing on the El Pasoans and the 20 deaths, their families and what it means to this community and how we can come together and not be victimized by this," Margo responded. "This will not define us. We are a unique region that's been here for 350 years. There's families on both sides. “There's commerce on both sides. We're bi-national and bi-cultural. We're almost 2.5 million people and our average age is 32. This will not define us.”

“Tapper set the stage for another ask. "The Texas Land Commissioner, George P. Bush, said in a statement that 'white terrorism' is a 'real and present threat that we must all denounce and defeat.' Do you agree that white terrorism is a threat to the United States?" Tapper asked "Jake, I'm not qualified to respond to that anymore than the previous question," Margo said. "I'm focusing on El Paso. There's evil in this world and it's unfortunate.”Table-jumper, self-admitted dirt eater Beto O’Rourke is now the starting point for questions like this from CNN host Jake Tapper? What gives? A cunning new way to smear citizens, by pretending to be just ‘journalistically’ questioning them, that’s what. Next out of the starting gate comes Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, seen as a doddering, old politician, but who is chief enabler of what has come to be known as “The Squad”. Sanders, who sees political life in a hammer and sickle light, said President Donald Trump’s rhetoric was causing mentally unstable people to take up arms.
“He added, “What he has to understand, in a nation when you have many, many thousands of people who are mentally unstable, when you talk about invasions and hordes of people, and talk about Mexicans as criminals and rapists, and a country under siege, you have unstable people who see that as a sign they have to take up arms and do the horrific things that we just saw in El Paso.”No sense reminding Sanders that for two and a half long years, non-stop hatred has been spewed straight out of a Democrat-controlled Congress. B.S left his heart, not like Nancy Pelosi in San Francisco, but back in the Soviet Union where he sang his heart out with friends during his honeymoon. Democrats don’t give a rat’s hindquarters that his protege Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is now calling for violence, because Sanders is a presidential hopeful right along with the other two dozen Democrats running for the 2020 DNC primary. Some of us thought it couldn’t get any worse when then-President Barack Obama referred to ISIS as the “JV Team”. Now we have Democrats and their running dog media smearing half the citizens of the U.S.A as despicable “white terrorists”. It just got a lot worse.
