OptionalCory Booker says Democrats have ‘failed this moment’ and calls for new leaders
TropicalDingdongAt least he’s calling for himself to be replaced.
Me out now! Me out now! Me out now!
He’s either kicking himself out of office, or demanding his own sexual liberation.
sp3ctr4lI can only imagine the thought in his head is:
If I say this first, and loudest, it therefore cannot apply to me, because I called it out.
Fucking terminal shitlib brain, everything is optics, history doesn’t exist beyond when I want to A/B test some rhetoric.
Good. If Cory Booker sees the way the winds are blowing and wants to start pushing in that direction, good.
You can tell Fox News is scared because when I googled his name, I got
Top stories - Fox News- Cory Booker confronted with old clip of himself saying he loves Donald Trump
(The context is that he’s religious and loves all people, including his enemies, but of course they leave that out.)
For those of us who are legit unaware … what did he do (or didn’t do) to get put on the shit list?
Aipac Shakur has done nothing. Him and Schumer are both pro Israel and have rolled over and not fought for much.
TallonMetroidWait, I thought AIPAC Shakur was Hakeem Jeffries in the House.
pelespiritYep, we all agree, he needs to be replaced or taken out of the leadership position. We will not forget that he and schumer voted to end the shut down we were winning for no reason that I can see.
DevolutionYou’re talking about Jeffries, not Booker.
Why not both?
Because in terms of voting record, Booker actually doesn’t look that bad: docs.google.com/…/1gPBdBrqVCbtuy7f1bjOdCDUzEv5Rqb…
Voting Score - 65%
Left Score - 73%
It looks like Booker isn’t necessarily good, but more everyone else is absolutely terrible. Unless I’m not understanding how these scores work?

See Wiki leaks and Occupy.
Well fuck, that’s embarrassing. I thought they were the same guy until I just compared a video of Jeffrie and Booker. I guess I put them in the same category of shitty.

To be clear, these guys don’t need to be perfect, but they clearly are looking out for their own interests.
Easy way to k ow between the two. Booker is fucking Rosario Dawson.
Jeffries isn’t.
Not anymore. Another L for the establishment
Dammit to hell.
…Does he realize he’s talking about himself?
Definitely not.
Me may still think his pointless filibuster will earn him leadership
You’re right, Cory. So drop out of your fucking primary and endorse a real leader.
Objectively fucking hilarious.
This man has been responsible for stomping down the voices who seek to replace him. AOC, Mamdani, Ossof, Platner…keep naming them.
He is no different than Schumer. Fuck both of you.
BoofStrokeStarting with himself, right? Pompous asshole.
inb4_FoundTheVeganAbsolutely true.
But Booker ain’t that leader.
“‘I’ve called for a generational renewal, because this left-right divide is killing our country and our adversaries know it.’ He also said that ‘purity tests’ within the party have led to more division in the US.”
yeah this is kind of the opposite issue of what anyone competent would want to address with chuck schumer
lumpenproletariatThese democrats think the problem is aversion to genocide and not blindly supporting the party. They would rather compromise with the Nazis, than challenge them from a leftist perspective:
Its also just complete horseshit.
Anybody remeber how David Hogg was actually trying to do this, 9 months ago?
And… basically 0 large parts of the Dem fundraising apparatus got involved in any way?
And… because Hogg tried to do this… he got ousted from his position in the party?

You uh, you coulda said something at that point, Cory.
Flamethrowers for the ratfuckers, that’d how they clean em up in the sewers of NYC, I hear.
“Americans want a new generation of leaders that show that they can lift the whole country up,” Booker added. “It is time for a new vision of our country that is far more uniting that brings people together, doesn’t deepen divides.”
And I want to see the Epstein class in a supermax prison. You know, let them see the kind of prison system they advocate for first hand.
This is peak, “we need to move forward and not dwell on the past” chud rhetoric. What America needs is accountability and hostility to the right.
I want to see them literally in a supermax prison.
As in, structural components of the walls.
Toss em into the framing, who cares if they get impaled on the rebar, pour the concrete.
Better idea, don’t do that with a prison, just make a new monument or something, the shame cube.
I wonder how many people are confusing booker and Jeffries.
Is booker (senator from NJ) in a leadership role? If he wants to boot Schumer, I’m with him on that
Yeah, you first you poor excuse for a lukewarm wet towel.
Yes the Dems need to be near completely replaced including this moron. Anyone not bare minimum left of center (and that starts at being against capitalism) needs to go.
Senator Andy Kim countered accusations that the Democratic party is divided, saying “this is the most united I’ve ever seen the Senate Democrats,”
That’s not a counter. Just because this is the most united he’s seen the Democratic party does not mean that it is united. Divided is the natural state of Democrats. It the words of Will Rogers, “I’m not a member of any organized political party…. I’m a Democrat.”
He’s a fucking leader so I guess he’s right?
Lmao democrats are actively complicit in this moment and the many countless moments in the past [pick a time range] that led to this moment
Schumer’s preference for centrist candidates
That is code for zionist first candidates. His extreme loyalty to Israel is disqualifying.
LemmyngMotherfucker filibustered for over 24 hours, fasted in preparation to do so, only to undo every fucking word he spewed by voting in Trump’s nominees.
It wasn’t a filibuster. No legislation was being held up. He just gave a long speech as a performance piece. People keep trying to say he had the longest filibuster, but it literally wasn’t one.
Damn, that was a good catch. I had misremembered it as well.
this left-right divide is killing our country
So you want the nazi-simp vote. Got it.
