It looks like he and warren are gearing up for their 2020 presidential run. And typically, they’ll stab anyone in the back to get to the top. Neither should turn a back on the other.

Booker is so shameless. He’s doing this to appease the snarling Leftist masses who will be voting in the 2020 primaries. He will end up looking like an opportunist and principleless hypocrite. But that may not matter to the Left, who doesn’t care about principles if it means winning.

Rush Limbaugh described it perfectly yesterday.

The Democrats in the U.S. Senate know damn well that these nominees will be confirmed, but they have to put on a show because they have to pretend they're being effective when it comes time to solicit political contributions from hard-core leftists.

Booker will come away from this Sessions hearing as the biggest loser in a whole liberal pile of them

LOL!!! Check out Booker's own WEBSITE where he PRAISES Jeff Sessions:

Senate Passes Booker-Sessions Legislation to Award Congressional Gold Medal to Selma Marchers

WASHINGTON – Legislation introduced by U.S. Sens. Cory Booker D- N.J. and Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., to award the Congressional Gold Medal -- the nation’s highest civilian honor -- to those who participated in the 1965 Voting Rights March from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, has passed the US Senate. Because the US House passed identical legislation earlier this month, with President Obama’s signature of the bill the Congressional Gold Medal will be awarded to the “Foot Soldiers” of the march.

The passage of this legislation comes in time to honor the fifty year anniversary of the heroism displayed by the marchers, who are set to gather in Selma next month to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the march.

“The passage of this legislation today comes nearly fifty years after the marchers at Selma ushered in a new chapter of American history. This recognition by the United States Senate is a deserving and timely way to honor their efforts and the anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965,” said Senator Booker. “As we confront the myriad of challenges our country continues to face, we do so with the knowledge that we drink deeply from wells of freedom and liberty that we did not ourselves dig. This Award is a small token of our collective national gratitude to the courageous men and women who sacrificed so much to move our country forward.”

Booker is running for President. I hope it’s forever before we end up with another race hustling rat for POTUS.

"I am here today to denounce the same senator I co-sponsored a Civil Rights award with. My motivation is simply to grandstand and attract attention to myself for a 2020 run. I only hope everybody just forgets the video of me praising Senator Sessions less than a year ago."

“”Is the country ready for another Kenyan?””

Heaven forbid!! We’re not even ready for another - ahem - African American - no matter the color or lack of it. EXCEPT maybe a Mychal Massie, Lloyd Marcus, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, and a few others with common sense and who know how to apply it.
