Booker: “I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I’ve been inadequate to the moment. I’ve confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say ‘we will do better.’”

    Booker is a staunch zionist. He should be in prison for supporting the killing of Palestinians.

        “As long as you keep the killing to brown people, fine”

        There is no “keeping fascism over there.” It always comes home. Do you want to end it now or when you’re the target?

          You don’t think it’s better that the country with most powerful military and bases all over the world doesn’t fall to fascism before Israel?

          Even if you don’t live in America it seems pretty obvious that is, in fact, better

            The point was that the USA is already fascist when it come to the Palestinians, and Booker is in full support of that, so now, i don’t see how its “obviously better” that Corey Booker wants to do the Holocaust, but only on foreigners.

              Yes, that’s the only reason you could have had your comment removed, senator McCarthy…

              Thanks for your contribution, senator McCarthy. Good to know that the people opposed to the position of “full support for fascist genocide is fine, so long as it’s being done to foreigners” are the ones who lack empathy and want to cause division.

            Yeah, the perspective of those who see foreigners as humans, and the perspectives of fascist white nationalists like you and Booker
