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.'"
I confess we all must look in the mirror and say ‘we will do better.’”
Spoiler: they won't
I thought it was kinda cool he was mad at Trump for 24 hours straight. This shit takes a lot of physical effort, especially for a 55 year old.
Highly performative though. Not saying it was useless, because it definitely was a statement. It was not yet a "step in the right direction, but at least a "slight bend of the neck to maybe someday start looking in the right direction". Now I would like every other congressional Democrat to follow it up with something. Furiously voting against absolutely everything the MAGA terrorists propose, no matter what. Call Mike Johnson a cuck live on C-Span, every day. Lock MTG in the bathroom. Create 100 policy proposals for the docket, every day and from everyone until the .txt list is 500 Petabyte big.
Shut congress down. Completely, until Trump is gone. This is war.
I will be honest, I would have run out of things to say after one hour if I am in his position.
Kudos to Booker!
I think my body would have given out long before I ran out of things to say about Trump. I would have started with Plato, and ended with a litany of insults, everything that could possibly conceived by mankind. A 20 hour "Zaporizhian Cossack's response to the Sultan", but even more scathing.
Honestly the first actual sign of resistance from within the Senate chamber.
Dumbass L*dditor gets amused by jingling keys.
