NEW YORK - U.S. Senator Cory Booker on Thursday said he would create a White House office to combat white supremacy and hate crimes if elected, becoming the latest Democratic presidential candidate to call for action after a racially motivated massacre in Texas.

The New Jersey senator announced his plan less than two weeks after a gunman in El Paso, Texas, killed 22 people inside a Walmart after posting an anti-immigrant screed online that echoed some of President Donald Trump’s heated rhetoric. The attack was among three mass shootings in the span of a week that killed 34 people in all.

Last week, at a historically black church in Charleston, South Carolina, where a white supremacist gunned down nine people in 2015, Booker criticized Trump’s language while linking the El Paso shooting to the United States’ long history of racism.

Ah just get rid of the current occupant. Duh.

This coming from the biggest racist in the presidential race.

He needs to create an office to aid mental illness & he can be the first recipient of that aid....

He couldn’t fix the city he ran. Yes democrats vote Cory.

Was the PhiladelphiaShooting done by a Whitesupremacist CoryBooker Also, do you know donlemon Just curious...

When this gets laughed into oblivion, he should just blame it on T-Bone. What a ludicrous idea.

Nothing is more 'white-supremacist' than the KKK. Yet, African Americans murder more people in less than one year than the KKK lynched in its entire long history.

He has no chance of winning.

Says the man with BLUE EYES! It looks to me like you would be fighting your OWN relatives!

Democrat politicians see all the failures of their government regulations and insist the solution is bigger government and more regulations. Insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over while expecting a different outcome. Democrat politicians are clearly insane.

This guy is nuts.

Lol. Why not an office against any race supremacism ? Is he racist against Whites himself ? ¡ Increible !

Is this one of the Cosby kids?

CoryBooker needs to set up an office to fight zionist fascism and apartheid. Much more serious problem. Oh wait, nevermind. His compromised as well.

Wow....a first....a candidate suggesting legislation based on fakenews

The office proposes that Cory Booker stopped wasting everyone's time running for it.

Perhaps it's time to change the name of the W.H.? I suggest 'The People's House'.

Spartacus!!!! Never mind that New Jersey, the state he represents has a ridiculous homicide and crime rate..

What I see is that Black Racism is positioning to take over and abuse against whites for what happened 150 years ago. Blacksburg don’t know how to let go and go on in life.

Pretty sure thats already called the FBI.

Poling at 1%

Educate people, promote travel with improved mass transit, rail and infrastructure, remove creationism from schools, speak inclusively, enforce the law equally. Tax the country equitably, this shit will go away. Highlighting it, gives them a platform and they dig in their heels.

And one for Unicorns

The first idea on what to call the hypothetical new office was apparently “the office of white inferiority.”

Todos los políticos de todos los partidos, de cualquier sexo, color, son peles de empresarios explotadores y contaminantes, que no respetan y que pretenden exterminar cualquier forma de vida.

DAILY TALKING POINTS... DIVISION & CHAOS... WHO'S PROMOTING? AMERICA ARE YOU AWAKE AND WATCHING THIS BS? AMERICA 1ST! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Should be called: 'Department of Justice'.
