Ever felt threatened by someone else's fancy language skills?

New Jersey Senator Cory Booker seemed to feel just that during the Democratic Debate on Wednesday night, when rival candidate Beto O'Rourke flexed his Spanish skills first.

When Beto was asked if he would support a higher tax rate for top earners, he responded by stating that the economy needed to "work for everyone." Beto then switched mid-answer to Spanish, and Booker was caught glaring in his wake.(snip)

He also dropped an answer in Spanish later in the debate. But Beto got there first. It's like someone stealing your song at karaoke or wearing the same outfit as you. Booker's raw irritation

If the 15M number is true, which depends on the source, I wonder how many were watching for the laughs.

“See post 58. I was wrong. There were only 10M.”

Hispanics are now more important to Democrats than blacks ensuring blacks will remain at the bottom of the ladder.

And transgenders are more important than actual women. They bite their own tails, but their devoted rage buddies vote for them anyway.
