Kushner is Drumpf's son-in-law who's very clearly benefited from Drump's presidency. Whether he's a nominal Democrat or not is irrelevant seeing as he's still an extension of Tangerine.

I ask you again: Are you implying that Booker suddenly stopped taking donations from Kushner (or Republicans) after 2008 or 2009?
Booker took money in 2009 and 2013, from a democrat donor.

Whats your point?

:ehh: troll logic.

You need to show how his donations shaped Booker's voting toward policy he likes that also gives him an unreasonable gain from those donations. A quid pro quo of sorts. If not, he's just like me donating money to a candidate I like based on their platform or proposed policies that will be beneficial.

Whats your point?

Again, I ask both of you:

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME MILLIONAIRE DONORS GAVE MONEY TO POLITICIANS WITHOUT EXPECTING ANYTHING IN RETURN?

I don't know.

My point is that nobody donates to high-level politicians without expectations of favors being returned.

Kushner donating money to Booker.

Kushner (Tangerine's son-in-law) donated over $60,000 to Booker (a Democratic and supposed rising star of the Party) over multiple years.

AND Booker has publicly stated that he's not trying to rush an impeachment for Drumpf, despite what others in his party are doing and saying.

Why Trump's No. 2 donor isn't asking for much

Washington (CNN)He doesn't demand the President hire his right-hand people. He doesn't ask aspirants to genuflect en route to his palatial home. He didn't even attend the inauguration.

Bernie Marcus isn't getting much for his $7 million.
The co-founder and first CEO of Home Depot has none of the pizzazz of the famous Mercer, Adelson or Thiel families who used their sums to fund Donald Trump's improbable White House victory and are as a result deeply intertwined with his political infrastructure. And for Marcus, the often overlooked second-largest donor behind casino magnate Sheldon Adelson to Trump's efforts during the presidential campaign, that's exactly how it should be.
In an age of activist donors who expect fealty from their chosen candidates, Marcus stands out as a throwback to a previous era of political billionaires with little desire to bring their own muscle to the game. Marcus appears all too content to operate on the margins of the White House, a reflection of both his shoulder shrug toward access and of his struggle to build a deep political operation that matches the depth of his pockets, according to interviews with more than a dozen people in his orbit.

1. Booker did not say he was against impeachment

2. Booker supports the investigation into trump

3. Booker said he was hesitant to say Kushner needs to immediately resign.

THATS what Booker said.

Now, if you disagree with any of that, that on you.

Why is Booker (a top Democrat) trying to pump the brakes on Drumpf's impeachment? Why is there an apparent discord between Booker and the Democratic Party brass (a la Schiff, Pelosi, and Reid) regarding Drumpf's need to be impeached?

Out of everything, I found his stance to be pretty reasonable. You can't rush an impeachment when you have no power, so you rely on the on-going investigation to build such a strong enough case that House Republicans *have* to act.

"BOOKER: Oh, I just want to tell you right now I'm not going to rush to impeachment.

I think we need to deal with this in a very sober way. This can't be a re-litigation of an election that has now passed. This has to be about an objective assessment about the facts that are going on right now.

And all I know is, I'm very satisfied that we have an independent investigation now going on through the Justice Department, as well as both houses are -- seem to be moving, not as fast I'd like, but moving towards an -- independent congressional investigations.

We need to make sure that the United States of America is protected. We had -- nobody disagrees with the fact that the Russians attacked us in terms of their cyber-attacks, and we need to get to the bottom of what happened.

And if there were Americans that colluded with the Russians to undermine our democratic processes, they should be held to account."

This is what we're talking about when we say "establishment." We're talking about the ruling class and its acolytes across party lines.
:what:


He's been a democrat. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make by who he donates money to. I'm a registered democrat. I always have been. I don't always vote for the democratic candidate. Seems like you're trying to conjure up a strawman.

Are you suggesting someone isn't a democrat if they don't always vote for democrats? Are you suggesting that one's political affiliation cannot change or is not fluid? Are you suggesting that voting and choosing candidates whose platform best suits your needs regardless of their political affiliation is a bad thing? Or are you just still trolling. :sas1:
