#5 He is not a businessman. He is a boytoy with a Sugar Midas wife who lets him pretend as it gets her off.

#7 He is not a businessman

Of course he is businessman, the politics business is the most profitable business there is - look at the Clintons or the Obamas.

#8 Bingo. Look also at California politics: the Boy Governor Gavin Newsome's influence-soaked (also alcohol-soaked) rise to wealth and power due to daddy's ties to the Browns and the Getty family.
Willie Brown's stash, and his ho' Kamala H's rise to wealth thanks to her socialite connections.
Both Feinstein and Pelosi married commercial real estate brokers with close ties to SF politicians. Etc etc

#10 ... and absolutely nothing in common with his namesake, straight-shooting anti-communist normal and decent Robert Francis.

Hence another reason behind his desire to change his given name. He suffers greatly by the comparison with RFK.

#12  Some bits on Amy Sanders - Beto's wife
Her Father Sold a Real Estate Business to GE for at Least $2 Billion
Amy’s father, William “Bill” Sanders, is known as a real estate mogul, according to El Paso Inc. He owns Verde Realty and has been highly successful in all his businesses. The book “The Richest Man in Town” noted that Bill Sanders began Verde after building a fortune in the real estate investment trust business. He founded LaSalle Partners and then Security Capital, one of the most successful REITs in the country, and later sold it to GE. (Some sources say he sold it for $2 billion and others say $5.4 billion.) Security Capital was one of the most influential real estate companies in history. Forbes, however, has cautioned against assuming that Amy is a billionaire heiress.
