Beto O'Rourke, as you may remember, was the cool, young, left leaning challenger who almost beat Ted Cruz in the Republican stronghold of Texas. Since then his image changed somewhat -- more cog-in-the-political-machine Hillary Clinton than populist leftist Bernie Sanders -- but more than anything else, he is now considered a presidential hopeful, with all the awkward connecting to the people that comes with it. It's clear Beto wants to keep being the new left leaning hero, so lining up with Ocasio-Cortez is a good idea. And what's better, is the weird Instagrammed teeth cleaning was meant to shine on something that our newly installed semi fascist, wall hungry executive branch seems to be terrified of - the border.
