I think Beto O’Rourke believes that climate change is a great big person that is shoving migrants up the border in order to get revenge on us and our SUVs.

Here’s the quote of what he said exactly, from the Blaze:
“We’ve got to remember that they are fleeing the deadliest countries on the face of the planet today,” O’Rourke said. “Compounded by drought that was caused, not by God, not by mother nature, but by us. Man-made climate change, our emissions, our excesses, our inaction in the face of the facts and the science. When it’s that deadly, and you’re unable to grow your own food to feed yourself, you have no choice but to come here.”
To be fair, some of them actually are driven into other countries because of the climate changing, but this happened even before liberals starting screaming that the sky is falling. The climate changes all the time, and people find that they have to move in order to seek jobs and other opportunities. Has literally happened since the beginning of human existence.
It’s just very convenient to be able to blame the U.S. for every bad thing that happens in the world. Somehow I doubt that this is going to help him dig out of the lack of support he has for his lame presidential campaign. I expect it’ll be “adios Beto!” pretty soon…
