Don't be drinking anything when reading the NRCC's response to Beto O'Rourke's announcement

Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke is now officially a Democrat candidate for president, and the National Republican Congressional Committee is all over it:

The NRCC just sent out a press release calling O'Rourke a "law-hating 'furry,'" so the 2020 campaign is off to a great start. pic.twitter.com/z86VBCBEG7

It’s real, and it’s something else:

In an effort to protect her left flank, @KathleenRice just endorsed a law-hating furry for President. @BetoORourke wants to:

• Tear down all border walls
• Legalize drugs
• Abolish ICE

Not a good message to send to #NY04 voters!https://t.co/fRHzwLv2MY pic.twitter.com/2YqujH1OLR
