Reminder that Booker is an enthusiastic genocide supporter who has pushed hard for anti-bds laws. He also very bad on plenty of other areas such as miltoquste climate policy and support for bombing Yemen. Don't champion him because of performative nonsense.

On the one hand, at least his performance galvanized some supporters. On the other, he's still establishment and there are better options for minority leader-- although, Senate is by definition rooted to establishment due to incumbency advantage and how entrenched most senators are without term limits.
He will have support until the slightest miss step, then "Democrats" will lambast him and toss him out without a second thought.
