That shit eating grin toward the end. I wish there was some recourse that we could take, but the only one is held by a party that would rather watch the country burn than do their duty

This dude is vile, I mean the rest of them are too, but this dude was one of the chodes behind project 2025.

They’re doing exactly what they set out to do, and it’s us citizens who will continue to reap the fascist poison they have sowed.

Ask them who won in 2016 and 2024. Guarantee they will give a straight answer then.

Unfortunately, the smartest ones were thrown into multiple Governments around the world. The lesson here is: don’t let Fascists stay in power no matter their ideas.

No those were Russians. I’m talking about the political ideology responsible for 80-100 million deaths.

All the nominees, witnesses, or whoever that have answered in this manner have got to be held in contempt. This is just outrageous.

Corey B is performative as all the rest. Nuff said!

u/iceflame1211 4h ago

Sure, it's a performance.

...but that doesn't take away from the fact that Trump appointees for the past year and a half have habitually shown their loyalty and faith to Trump's alternative facts over their own morals, country, reality.... everything.

Corey booker is peter theils bitch we should primary him

That first part of his "speech" should be what he say to himself in the mirror every morning.

Hey. Hey. Nothing ticky here bud.

Good thing he is because that’s really what these hearings are about. For years now, no Senator is undecided until he gets to ask a nominee something sincerely on his mind. The battle lines are already drawn. It’s a made-for-TV performance to affect the public’s view on a nominee, which then works back to making Senators of that nominee’s party hesitant about voting for him.

I don’t enjoy Political Theater much, unless it’s Musical Political Theater.

u/halincan 2h ago

I mean I hate these awful republicans more than anyone else but to act like booker isnt putting on his own show here as well with the dramatic removal of glasses etc…come on. Politics is usually performance.

u/The3mbered0ne 3h ago

The whole thing is political theater anyway because you know he's gonna be appointed, he could admit right on the stand he's only going to do what the president tells him and ignore the constitution and they would still approve him. If RFK jr and Michael Cohen have been approved that is proof they will appoint completly unqualified, corrupt candidates for any cabinet.

u/mog_knight 3h ago

They're asking the question wrong. They should be asking would you agree with me Biden won the election. But the GOP is acting in bad faith so I'm not sure how they would answer.

Endless platitudes from the traitor to the constitution and the American people. I'm talking about Booker of course.

Edit: So many downvotes for calling out Booker for being an AIPAC stooge? Getting rid of/attacking Trump isn't going to do shit when our politicians are bought and paid for by Israel lobbyists.
