Texas gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke just crashed Gov. Greg Abbott’s press conference on the Ulvalde school massacre, where he and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick was issuing the usual thoughts and prayers blather and even saying that the massacre could have been worse.
Moments after O’Rourke approached the dais, multiple Abbott flacks began shouting at him, with one calling him a “sick son of a bitch.” O’Rourke was eventually pulled away by the police. Watch every moment of the mayhem.
