Cory Booker Had ‘Tears Of Rage’ When He Heard ‘S***hole’ Comment [VIDEO]

Democratic Sen. Cory Booker seethed with anger over Trump’s alleged “shithole countries” comment during a hearing with Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.

During a hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Nielsen faced numerous questions about Trump’s alleged insistence that countries like Haiti and African countries are “shithole countries.”

“I hurt,” Booker cried. “When Dick Durbin called me I had tears of rage when I heard about this experience in this meeting.”

“For you not to feel that hurt and that pain and to dismiss some of the questions of my colleagues saying, ‘I’ve already answered that line of questions’ when tens of millions of Americans are hurting right now because of what they’re worried about right now in the White House — that’s unacceptable to me,” Booker yelled at Nielsen.

Booker claimed that he receives “enough death threats” and sees enough “people plotting” that Trump’s comments cause him to become enraged.

“Your silence and your amnesia is complicity,” he concluded.

I looked him up on Google and all I could find was a picture of a snowflake.

How does a man get to be in a position of power when a couple of words makes him cry. Maybe he should resign and allow someone else take his place. /s

Tears of joy, more like it. He knows Trump's latest outrage will get Booker more face time on TV while he emotes distress over the evil president.

If I didn't know better, I'd swear that politicians take drama class at some point along the way. I see them on TV and I'm reminded of Jon Lovitz on SNL as "Master Thespian."

How dare the President call a sh*thole country a sh*thole country? Surely Somalia et al are GREAT PLACES TO LIVE! Why, no one ever wants to come and live HERE from these places!

Hey Cory... I unplug my nose in the general direction of your faux outrage.

Wasn’t Schumer crying about something else Trump said once?

Yep, it was about the travel ban. "It's mean-spirited and un-American, wah wah wah." Isn't it interesting how their tears and rage are in support of NON-Americans?

This guy is such a drama queen.

I guess that's all he's got going for him because he's a useless and ineffective U.S. Senator.
