Senator Booker: The biggest error in the Democratic Party has committed is “not to focus people”

The biggest error that the Democrats made is “not to focus people enough”, Senator Cory Booker, DN.J., said on Sunday.

“Many people voted for Donald Trump because they trusted him and did not trust that the Democrats could deliver for them,” said Booker to ABC “this week” George Stephanopoulos anchor. “We are in a state where, once again, the Democratic Party should have. We have partially put in this way so that this demagogue comes into office, and therefore the way we deal with, the way we correct these errors, is to focus more on the centering of American voices, Americans in our conversation and in our goal, not concentration on politics, concentration on people. “

The Booker Marathon 25 hours and 4 minutes of speech which concluded on Tuesday evening broke the record for the longest speech on the Senate soil. Booker protested the national “crisis” which he declared that President Donald Trump and advisor Elon Musk had created. He went beyond the record set by Senator Strom Thurmond, who has proven the law on civil rights for 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957.

During the speech, Booker said that the Democrats had to do better.

“I admit that I was imperfect. I admit that I was inadequate at the time,” said Booker on Tuesday. “I admit that the Democratic Party made terrible errors that have given a way to this demagogue. I admit that we must all look in the mirror and say” we will do better “.”

Booker told Stephanopoulos that the action he had tried to inspire with his speech should not be confused with partisan policy.

“This is not the Democratic Party, I’m sorry,” said Booker. “The Democratic Party is the weakest when it is concerned about the party. It is the strongest when it is concerned about the people, when it is larger and wider than any narrow political analysis. It’s time for Americans to intensify.”

According to the organizers, tens of tens of thousands of “practical” demonstrators have gathered in more than 1,200 cities across the country to denounce the Trump administration’s reductions on federal workforce and other policies, according to the organizers.

“I am just grateful, especially yesterday, to stay in solidarity with millions of Americans who are just really determined, even if they are themselves tired, to continue to fight,” said Booker.

Here are more protruding facts from Booker’s interview:

Booker on the prices that Trump announced this week

Stephanopoulos: Let’s talk about some of the problems to which the Americans responded, including, of course, the prices. You heard Kevin Hassett earlier in the program. He said there can be a certain price increase, but it will be worth it. Your answer?

Booker: May God bless Kevin, but I have never seen an administration during my lifetime doing something so bad monumental and that is so amazing American people. I heard all day yesterday, frightened Americans who saved all their lives, for retirement in the coming months, but now that they cannot because in a game of Fell Swoop, Donald Trump has devastated their retirement accounts, their 401 (K) increasingly important for the president. Thus, the chaos he triggered on America, the financial insecurity he brought to people’s lives is not what he promised to people, and I think he will already go for a president with the worst first days during the last century of any president who has ever taken this office.

Booker on law firms and universities targeted by the administration

Stephanopoulos: “You have also seen Jon Karl’s article on the president’s remuneration campaign, he promised to be the compensation during the campaign. We see these movements against universities. We see these movements against law firms. You took the Senate soil to protest. What should these law firms and universities do?

Booker: “Well, above all, you call reprisals, but it’s something worse than that. If you look in the world in the best interest of the public as a whole. Donald Trump says now, don’t ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do to Donald Trump.
