Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

.... Or do both, and break your own record?

I dont know about you, but I prefer something to nothing. And I will continue to support anyone being against what Trump is doing. So I'm not going to disparage him for this. I have plenty of things to complain about with Booker. This isn't one of them.

To each their own I guess.

That's my point, you can break your own record, but the media and public will be desensitized to it after the first time, sadly most people will tune out after the novelty has passed.

I'm not disparaging him, as much as I am calling into question the timing of it. Any pushback at all is welcome, but it just seems to me to be poorly timed in terms of effectiveness.

I guess we'll see what kind of effect this has afterwards and if it has a positive outcome.

I would think the novelty would be in doing it twice.

But that's just my opinion.
