By going big in their long-running war on former President Donald J. Trump with the unprecedented criminal indictment of the GOP frontrunner, Democrats are rolling the dice that the coming Soviet-style show trial and possible imprisonment of the America First leader won’t further destabilize a system that is already reeling from their abuses of power.
Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) was dismissive of concerns that Trump’s prosecution by the Biden regime at a time when Attorney General Merrick Garland’s Justice Department has shown blatant double standards, as was made evident by the coddling of presidential son Hunter Biden, will further inflame public sentiment against the nation’s institutions that have been politically weaponized by his party.
The New Jersey Democrat sat down with CNN’s Chris Wallace on the latest edition of “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace,” the anchor’s Max/CNN streaming series where he attempted to gaslight the public by insisting that Special Counsel Jack Smith was an unbiased independent prosecutor.
“Donald Trump wants us to be talking about Donald Trump right now,” the left-wing senator said. “I think the media did a horrible job as he was rising into prominence by getting so much attention. So much focus-”
Wallace shot back, “But we can’t ignore the first former president to be indicted on criminal charges.”
“I’m not calling for us to ignore something as significant as that. I’m simply saying that we are at a point of exhaustion. It’s like the McCarthyism–have you no decency? When does this fever break? When do we begin to say enough is enough?” Booker asked. “There are enough things that we could work together on, from immigration reform to American competitiveness abroad, to innovation technology, entrepreneurialism. I’m for one, tired of the circus and the carnival barking that has been going on, and I’m just trying to get folks back to the attention of the work at hand.”
Wallace then implied that Booker is borderline delusional if he thinks trying Trump is going to bring an end to the acrimony.
“But you talk about wanting to end the circus and wanting to bring people together and work on the serious problems the country faces. Given all of that, are you comfortable with one president’s Justice Department prosecuting a former president, but just, I mean whether the charges are right or wrong, is just, you know is going to inflame and further divide the country,” he pressed.
“Well, so that should be a reason why someone should break the law with impunity, no. And we all know that. No one is above the law and that at a time that, as I talked about before, a lot of Americans don’t think the justice system has legitimacy,” the Democrat answered.
“And so this is a circumstance where, talk about hands off, we put an independent person at the–not a political partisan–but Merrick Garland had respect on both sides of the aisle. He then, as a degree of separation, put a special prosecutor in place. What is going on right now is the course of justice taking place,” Booker said. “As again, Donald Trump, lieutenants or attorney generals have said time and time again, these crises that are popping up around Donald Trump are of his own making.”
