An unapologetic Joe Biden defended his remarks about working with segregationist senators on Wednesday, telling reporters that"there's not a racist bone in my body."
Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey, one of the former vice president's rivals for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, had called on Biden to apologize for remarks he had made at a fundraiser Tuesday evening in New York. "Apologize for what?" Biden told CNN when asked about Booker's call outside a fundraiser Wednesday evening in Rockville, Maryland. "Cory should apologize," he said."He knows better. There's not a racist bone in my body.
CoryBooker Comical. JoeBiden is just confirming DNC IS the PartyOfSlavery & segregation. Loser CoryBooker must apologize for being a Democrat. Demanding reparations as TheDemocrats is like OJ Simpson demanding punishment for murderers. ThankGodLincolnWonTheWar
CoryBooker You’re missing the most important takeaway; the segregationists mentioned were DEMOCRATS...
CoryBooker Biden needs no lesson from you. He worked with those he didn’t agree with; he didn’t put them in office or defend their beliefs.
CoryBooker Your giving the pubs ammunition to use against biden and the dems will lose in a landslide .. Think !!using the same tactic expecting a different results is called insanity ..
CoryBooker Dear Cory, you miss the point in your attempt to exploit for personal gain. Opinions are like —holes everyone has one, and yours is no better than his period. So yes one needs to bend on both sides or this doesn’t work.
CoryBooker Starting shit for nothing.
CoryBooker This is a waste of time. We (Democrats) will not win the White House 🤦🏻♂️
CoryBooker Irrelevant candidate looking for the Hail Mary!
CoryBooker truth to power = 'i dont know if Donald Trump is racist. I can't see into his heart.' But Biden has issues with race?
CoryBooker Biden's 'segregationist senators' were....wait for it....DEMOCRATS!! And none of this seemed to bother DEMOCRATS or the FakeNewsMedia when Obama chose him to be VP for 8 years! You libnuts & media hacks are hilarious!!
CoryBooker Democrat Segregationists.
CoryBooker It's impossible to be a Democrat and not be a segregationist. 🙄
CoryBooker I'm saying this as much as possible because I want to be clear: Biden is saying these things purposefully. He wants to tap into the Right's way of thinking.This way if he's the FrontRunner he has a chance 2 peel off wobbly Trump voters because they feel somewhat comfortable w/him
CoryBooker The cockroaches are starting to feed on each other. Landslide for Trump
CoryBooker You are all falling in Trumps Grip. You all are doing what he wants and start picking at each other. If this don't stop we will have 4 more years of that anti christ. Heard what Biden said and he was not trying to hurt anyone. Now regroup ppl n let's give the R a great debate
CoryBooker Don’t need to be dividing the Democrats.
CoryBooker People everywhere need to calm down. I am 63 yrs old, and when I say 'boy', it has no reference to color whatsoever. I don't care if you're black, white, red, yellow, blue, green or in between. If I'm old enough to be your Mama, you're a 'boy' to me!
CoryBooker 🙄
CoryBooker Let me tell you something the only devisive party in this country is the democrats and you CNN. AT no time has Trump or the Republican party ever shown any hate towards anybody. YOU spew hatred because that is all you have.
CoryBooker Biden’s point is that although he worked with, he didn’t agree with racist views of segregationist senators who were eventually defeated but today we have a POTUS who doesn’t talk to and considers anyone an enemy who disagrees with him in any way so nothing gets done in Congress.
CoryBooker The more you mention Trump the more you embolden his voting base and actually grow it
CoryBooker
CoryBooker The racism, the hate and violence all perpetuated by Democrats! And please Booker give us a break you went to the best schools and didn't attend inner city schools, you were raised with a silver spoon in your mouth. Hard to lecture others about disparity when you can't relate!
CoryBooker It sounds like Booker can't handle or hear the truth?
CoryBooker Funny this truth to power BS line I hear Kamala say also!! Well funny not funny, coming from these very humble, honest, Congress people sarcasm.
CoryBooker The word 'Boy' is not a blacks only word. Plus, the effort to stigmatize words that are cross cultural to constitute some kind of mob reaction is nuts. This kind of reporting is garbage.
CoryBooker Doesn’t Congress have a horrible approval rating in part because it doesn’t accomplish shit because it’s become so partisan? Booker: Fuck yes! I’m doubling down on a partisan Congress not doing shit! I mean, if it makes the dude leading the polls look bad! I hate politics.
CoryBooker He doesn't 'know better' because he's never held accountable and knows he's going to be the nominee. He SHOULDN'T BE but he knows it's gonna happen regardless
CoryBooker So if you had the opportunity to work across party lines with people you didn't like because of their racial rhetoric but what they would work with you on would help every man, woman and child no matter their race you would say no, I won't work with you...This is you being wrong.
CoryBooker Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment: Thou shalt not attack another Republican. Go home, Cory, you ARE the weakest link. Take a seat next SenGillibrand who attacked alfranken and amyklobuchar for standing mutely beside as she destroyed him.
CoryBooker Poor Cory ..... just so broken ....... He is like a party balloon with the air let out.
CoryBooker
CoryBooker What a jerk
CoryBooker Hey CNN, pushing Cory isn't going to help his or your ratings. Cory needs to keep NJ blue and get out of a race he can not win.
CoryBooker SPARTACUS!!!!
CoryBooker What the hell was he supposed to do? Nearly all of Congress and Senate were known or accommodating racists: he had to work with them just as Dr King had to work with Racist Pastors! He did not join them. He sought to bring them to his views. Purity is the poison for Progressives
CoryBooker Look, you’re a good guy, he’s a good guy...
CoryBooker Democratic Segregationist Senators.*
CoryBooker Cory Booker has no chance at becoming President. His Record as Newark NJ mayor is dismissed as atrocious. Police brutality was rampant in Newark during his tenure. I’m voting for Joe.
CoryBooker Booker is worse 🤣
CoryBooker Cory you’re not helping the Democrats to defeat Trump.
CoryBooker Here it goes. Starting to eat their own.
CoryBooker Was seriously considering Booker... until this. See ya, Corey.
CoryBooker Who else was he going to work with? Some were out in the open and some were undercover but they all had a vote. Dems should try working with the segregationists in the Senate today.
CoryBooker
CoryBooker This guy is a textbook phony politician. I live in NJ and knew his guy would get to this point back when he was a Mayor. Thinks he is Obama. 🙄🤦♂️
Forgive him, he’s very old
I don’t get it. I listened to the Joe Biden’s comment and given the “context” of the point he was making... there was nothing about it that I found offensive. And mind you..., I was born and raised in the Deep South until I left home to serve this country for 35 years.
Also do you really think Biden wasn't right in the room with Obama as they played out the biggest scam of corruption in history! Project Hammer spying on millions on citizens, judges, Republivans for blackmail scam. And Clinton deal also, 8 years and nothing but corruption.
'When someone shows you who they are, believe them'
That's what RalphNortham said
The presidential train left Biden's station long time ago.
Biden and Bernie need to step aside. They are in the way of the younger generation. At 58, I am a fossil to this young generation. Let the 40 something's have at it. LOCKTRUMPUP
Why did you support segregation?
Is Joe gonna put us in chains?
Oh I am certain we can find at least one somewhere
People should read what he actually said
Biden is a fighter and exactly what a person needs to beat Trump. No backing down hit them where they hit you.
This is the type of antics that can improve Trump’s chances of being re-elected. The DNC must encourage its presidential candidates to refrain from slander and dirty politics. The media is all too willing to focus on slander rather than real issues.
Caught you racist Joe Biden
Go Joe!
Note- ‘not a racist bone’ in my body. Is like saying. I don’t eat pork, unless it’s on pizza.
