Just Give it Up, Julián

On Thursday, Julián Castro sent out a panicky email to supporters begging for more money, or threatening “it will be the end of [his] campaign.” 

Despite desperate attempts at staying relevant by celebrating nonexistent “holiday” like “Bi Visibility Day” and parading around the Iowa Steak Fry with mariachis, his bland campaign seems to be reaching its eventual demise.

During the Democrat debates, Castro focused on Fmr. Vice President Joe Biden for his age while debating health care instead of sticking to policy., He scolded Biden, “But you just said that two minutes ago! . . . Are you forgetting what you said two minutes ago?” The ageist jab was not taken well.

Castro got even nastier in his rhetoric by proclaiming to Biden that he is “fulfilling the legacy of Barack Obama, and you’re not.” After being confronted by his fellow Democrats on the debate stage, he snapped back with “Yeah, that’s called the Democratic primary election.” 

Castro’s frantic performance on the debate stage seemed to everyone, except possibly him, that it’s time throw in the towel and go back to civilian living. 

According to a Quinnipiac poll, Castro is still hanging around an abysmal 2%, where he needs to be at 3% to qualify for the next Democrat debate. 

By constantly begging for the impeachment of President Trump, passing out campaign signs that look like they were cut and pasted out of construction paper by blind fourth graders, and retweeting AOC, Castro is just another socialist like Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders, promising “free” everything. 

Supporters hold campaign signs at a June rally.

Handing out “El Presidente” medals with his face emblazoned on them and a “46” in the corner didn’t help much either.

Julián: It’s time to step out of the race and go back to being mistaken for your doxx-happy brother at coffee shops. You don’t belong in the White House, nor anywhere near an elected office again. No “El Presidente” for you, Sir!
