Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted April 2, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 2, 2019 The O'Rourke's from Guatemala. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/associated-press-beto-orourke-native-spanish_n_5ca25fb7e4b014390a16c816 Associated Press Burned For Claiming Beto O’Rourke Spoke ‘In His Native Spanish’ The Associated Press found itself the punch line of more than a few jokes on Sunday after mistakenly claiming that 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke spoke “in his native Spanish” at a rally in El Paso, Texas. The story covered O’Rourke’s three-city tour the day before, during which he also visited Houston and Austin to mark the official launch of his campaign. The original AP copy noted the “loud and sustained cheers” O’Rourke received when switching to Spanish, but the language is not his native tongue. Someone then corrected the story, but didn’t note the change right away. When HuffPost asked about the lack of a correction note, the AP said, “There should have been a correction. It’s forthcoming.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got a really good punching face...but it’s too dorky to flatten. Total empty suit. He’s perfect for the dems but, I don’t see him winning out. Many don’t want an Obama again and hopefully, they’ll show up to vote it this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
