en. Cory Booker, D-N.J., was enraged during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday and admitted he was "seething with anger" over President Trump's alleged "shithole comments" and a Cabinet official's statement that she did not recall the incident.
“I had tears of rage," Booker bellowed at Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen in reference to when he first heard of Trump's "shithole countries" remark last week. "And for you not to feel that hurt and that pain and to dismiss the questions of my colleagues, with tens of millions Americans hurting right now because they're worried about what happened in the White House ..."
"When the commander in chief speaks or refuses to speak, those words don't just dissipate like mist in the air. They fester. They become poison. They give license to bigotry and hate in our country," he said.
"When ignorance and bigotry is allied with power, it's a dangerous force in our country. Your silence and your amnesia is complicity," Booker told Nielsen.

Booker has already won the award for the most irresponsible, overheated drama queen in Washington DC for 2018. With this horrendous display of idiocy, craziness, and complete lack of self-control, he’s already locked up that award in January. This man lacks the mental capacity to be a US senator and he should resign from the Senate immediately and go into acting or some other occupation where thoughtless lack of self-control is an asset.
Yes, the late ,great Bob Grant was the one who made that phrase famous.
Booker:
An angry Racist and Bigot....
He is assuming that the economic and social problems in Haiti are because of the color of the skin of it population. Come on man! this is America! this is the 21st century! There is no call for that kind of thought, he should apologize.
Booker:
A liberal infused with victim mentality where Haiti doesn’t have responsibility for its own woes and it is ‘reprehensible’ to point out its economic and social shortcomings, and we should accept them
That is the more evil and insidious part of Booker’s mentality, as not recognizing problems in order to fix them will condemn the Haitian population to live in misery forever.
Booker should resign for his comments and lack of empathy for the Haitians.
