It is 663 days until the next presidential election,
but the campaign is already underway.
One of the Democrats exploring a run
is former Texas representative and weathered teenage, uh,
teenage boy Beto O'Rourke.
All week he's been traveling around,
talking to everyday Americans
and posting stories on his Instagram.
And it turns out maybe there is such a thing as too relatable.
NEWSWOMAN: That is, indeed,
Beto O'Rourke in the dentist chair
talking to people near the border
about what life is like there,
including talking to his own dentist.
Yeah... Beto.
It looks like he didn't understand
what his advisor meant when he said,
"All the kids are flossing." Uh...
'Cause, like, what's next?
Ted Cruz checking his beard for lice on TikTok?
-Come on, man. -(audience groans)
But this is a genius way to avoid tough questions, right?
'Cause it'd be like, "Congressman, how...
"how can you call yourself a progressive candidate
when you voted for drilling in the Gulf of Mexico?"
He'd be like, "Great question. (muffled gibberish)
(spits) Ah."
Moving on to a congressman
who did something even less cool than visit a dentist.
Representative Steve King of Iowa.
King has often faced accusations of racism.
Now, that's mostly because of all the racist stuff he says.
But today he defended himself by saying,
"What's wrong with racism, anyway?"
NEWSMAN: Steve King defending himself
after a newly published article from The New York Times
saying he's not racist, but then in the article,
the congressman from Iowa's 4th District
questions why the term "white nationalist"
and "white supremacist" are offensive language.
Yeah!
I'm not racist. You niggas need to calm down.
(laughter)
Now, I know, I know it sounds bad,
but at least he didn't do something truly unforgivable,
like say "mother (bleep)"
or dance on a rooftop once, you know what I'm saying?
Moving on to some news from Paris,
the capital of fine dining.
The very first restaurant serving only nude diners
in Paris is shutting down.
The restaurant, O'naturel,
has only been open for 15 months.
Apparently, business has been suffering
from a lack of customers.
Not many people want to show up naked.
The nudist restaurant plans to close its doors for good
-on February 16. -NEWSMAN: Yeah, they had a good run.
That's right.
France's first nude restaurant is closing February 16,
which means my Valentine's Day reservation is still good to go.
-Yeah. -(laughter)
Yeah, you know, uh, nothing quite says love
like spilling hot clam chowder on my genitals.
It's just, uh...
Can you imagine being a health inspector there?
What happens? You just walk in and kill yourself?
Like... And what if you're a waiter
having to deal with the customers?
It'd be like, "Excuse me. There's a hair in my chicken!"
Be like, "Well, sir, your balls are all over my chair,
so we're even."
