Is he running for Commander-in-Chief?
Or Televangelist-in-Residence?
Sometimes it’s hard to tell, Save Jerseyans, as Cory Booker (D-Twitter) slogs around the country attempting to shore up support from the Democrat Party’s shrinking but vocal fringe base of primary voters.
On Friday, New Jersey’s junior senator dropped by the South by Southwest gathering in Austin, Texas, and he struck a powerful blow against… tolerance?
“I tolerate a cold,” Booker told the crowd. “That’s not what we were called to do is to tolerate each other. We are called to love each other. Now, patriotism, which is love of country, I think mandates a love of one another. We don’t have to like each other, we don’t have to agree with each other. But tolerance says I’m just going to stomach your right to be different and if you disappear off the face of the Earth I’m no worse off or better off.”
Here’s a flavor:
—
Keep in mind: this is the same missionary of love and peace that smeared his colleague, Jeff Sessions, as a racist without any basis, turned his back on another former ally, Betsy DeVos, and the struggling children she represents to score points with primary voters, compared scrutiny of Hillary Clinton to the discrimination faced by Martin Luther King, Jr. (!), and spent most of Election 2016 race-baiting on Hilldawg’s behalf after having taken Ivanka Trump’s money.
Love? He’s got a strange way of showing it….
Booker also took a shot at “virtual bubbles” which he believes contribute to the love-deficits he lamented in his remarks, a curious observation for a man who blocked yours truly on Twitter (and spends most of his time tweeting).
One final doozy: “I don’t know what the future holds. But at this time in American history I want to be a fearless truth-teller.”
Uh-huh.
Fraud. Phony. Liar.
Don’t fall for this false prophet in 2020, America.
