Texas voters rejected Democrat contender Beto O’Rourke Tuesday, in a heated Senate race monitored nationwide.
After high enthusiasm for Beto and record fundraising failed to push him over the finish line, liberals who truly believed the El Paso skateboarder would somehow pull off an upset victory against Trump-backed incumbent Ted Cruz took to Twitter to vent over the stinging defeat.
Here are a few of the best liberal meltdowns collected from Twitter in the wake of the Cruz victory:

I get that Beto got a lot of glossy coverage. But you’d have to be insane not to recognize how innovative and remarkable his campaign was. He put together the most groundbreaking fundraising apparatus in Senate history

How does Texas reelect this weak, anal wart? Beto was one vote, and really gave a shit about real Texans, born there, Cruz is Canadian, and a weasel. WTF TEXAS?

@BetoORourke Do not concede. Every vote must be counted. They waited in line for you. Make sure their votes are all counted. https://t.co/2O719nyku5

Other prominent liberals fantasized about a potential 2020 Beto run against President Trump.
Beto O'Rourke's loss tonight in Texas may open up a 2020 Presidential run to him.
He is going to lose by less than 2 points. That's remarkable in Texas. Really shows the direction the country is head.
Congrats Beto on a hard fought battle.

Damn Beto had a Beyoncé co-sign and still lost? Yeah the hillbillies done hacked yer voter stations

Sad news. @CNN is projecting that Ted Cruz will defeat Beto O’Rourke.
I want to take a minute to congratulate @BetoORourke for what he was able to accomplish. I have a feeling we will one day see him run for President.
We love you Beto!
— Ed Krassenstein (@EdKrassen) November 7, 2018
Beto lost? That’s ok. Now he can run for President.
— Alyssa Milano (@Alyssa_Milano) November 7, 2018
What Beto O'Rourke did in Texas was absolutely amazing and—while I'm certainly not announcing support for any candidate—I do believe, fervently, Beto should run for President of the United States in 2020.
100% serious. If he can get 48% in Texas, anything is possible nationally.

We’ll continue updating this list…
Despite already facing an uphill battle running in Deep Red Texas with a progressive liberal platform better suited to California, the Beto campaign’s success was further hindered by a devastating Project Veritas bombshell dropped mere days ahead of the midterm election.
In the undercover video, Beto staffers were shown to be using campaign money to fund illegal immigrants and members of the migrant caravan.
