The excitement that greeted Beto O'Rourke's presidential candidacy is long gone. The former Texas congressman has been stuck in low single digits in most polls, and CNN senior Washington correspondent Jeff Zeleny reports he's now running low on cash.

"On the eve of the fundraising deadline for all the candidates to report their money, he's yet to report," Zeleny said. "I'm told by a couple of top supporters familiar with his financial situation that it's bleak. A few staffers have begun leaving El Paso, moving on to other things. ... He has a lot of high-powered, high-paid staff members so there are discussions going on, I'm told, as to what the next step is. He's committed to staying in, but it's not the summer he envisioned."

This is what happens when you mistake contempt for your opponent with your own popularity. The question is can Bert mount a successful Senate run at this point? He just lost to Cruz and will be leaving the presidential field with his tail in between his legs... maybe it's best if he works on voting initiatives this cycle before he challenges Abbott in 2022?

"I got reelected because African American voter turnout was low, folks. We lowered it. We did it, folks. Our ADOS program successfully got the blacks to stay home on election day, folks. Wow. Four more years of Trump. The greatest. So genius."
