NJ Senator/Presidential candidate Cory Booker on impeachment

[Jersey mike]

Had this to say;

" "Did the president or not — and there were witnesses in the room — did he violate his oath?" Booker said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."

" "I'm going to evaluate the facts objectively and honor the oath that I swore, even though I think Donald Trump has violated his oath of office," Booker said on NBC."

Apparently unless the Senate can be an impartial body and show to be pre-disposed to vote to remove the President from office the Senate will not get the Articles of Impeachment from the House.

That seems to be the case the Democrats are making.

What can possibly go wrong?

When ever I think of Booker.

I see an angry face.
Finger pointing.
Wide starey, crazy eyes.

Spartacus has a actress girlfriend and a cushy Senate position, couldn't raise enough support to stay in the debates so I guess Chuck Todd is trying to squeeze the last bit of relevance out of him. Being a person of color doesn't carry as much weight with the Democrats as one might think.

Maxine Waters just needs her gut: 'I believe, even though I don't have the facts to prove it'

Both Green and Bass have stated that they plan to revisit the debunked Russia collusion hoax in their next impeachment efforts.

    Lawmaker prepares to impeach Trump AGAIN if he gets reelected, with hopes of Dem Senate!
    Dems say if Trump gets re-elected, they'll just keep trying to Impeach him w/ different crimes!
    Unbelievable!

Being a person of color should carry no weight at all.  Racism is not defeated by jamming people of certain races or ethnic groups into office.  Racism is defeated when a person's race or ethnic group is not considered at all in choices of public office.

The people screaming racism the loudest seem to be as much or more driven by racism as are their opponents.

Agreed a big 100%

I agree with both of you but we know that's not how things work in Politics or hardly anywhere else.
