Corey Booker Gets DROPPED After Comments on Shapiro Attack

After the attack on the Pennsylvania governor's mansion, a lot of people offered up their opinions about what happened. Many of them shut up once they realized it was a deranged leftist who was mad that Shapiro wasn't anti-Israel.

But one who probably should have shut up is Sen. Corey Booker.

Instead, he tried to find the middle ground and say something that would add to any presidential campaign that might be in the works for 2028.

The attack on Josh Shapiro and his family did not happen in a vacuum.

Incendiary rhetoric, purposeful disinformation — it all helped lead to this hateful and destructive act. Leaders need to be conscious of their words having consequences.

Let's inspire people to use their…

...to use their voice, make their case, but never feel that violence is a just or necessary action.

Sure sounds nice, doesn't it? It sounds like the thing we might be able to rally behind as we go forward.

Harsanyi is absolutely correct. After all, we saw the "Summer of Love," where pretty much every major city burned, where the most super-deadly virus ever was suddenly not an issue because the pandemic that necessitated shutting down schools, churches, and the entire economy, really wasn't nearly as pressing an issue as racism.

But then January 6th happened, which wasn't a great moment for the right but was majorly overblown by the left, and that's all we heard about for four years. It justified literally everything they wanted to do to restrict our rights, even though it was nothing more than an unauthorized tour of the Capitol with some people making themselves a tad too comfortable.

Then we start seeing Tesla dealerships vandalized, personally owned vehicles vandalized, bombs found at dealerships, shootings at dealerships, and multiple assassination plots, all generated by leftists, and there are crickets.

It was only the attack on Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro that suddenly warranted comment, and now it's about all of us just being better? Now the incendiary rhetoric is a problem? Booker's bunch has called Trump an existential threat to the republic, and that was never too much, but now what people are saying is a problem?

Harsanyi simply points out the hypocrisy, but he absolutely dropped Booker by doing it.

A post that was supposed to look like reconciliation was identified as the partisan BS that is Booker's stock and trade. Leftist violence is no big deal, or, if it is, it's a chance for us to just put all of that aside and move forward as a united country.

But if they can remotely label the attacker as someone from the right, well, that's proof that the Republican Party is nothing but a bunch of hating haters that hate and somehow speak of the entirety of the right.

It's disgusting, but par for the course for the left, really.
