US Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) suggested he may run for POTUS in 2028.
Perfect.
Another status quo showman senator to fill an already crammed room choc-a-bloc with dinosaur candidates.
I could just see this interview now:
~
Reporter: "Senator Booker? Did America enslave millions of blacks in the South to work on the cotton plantations?"
Senator Booker: "Well, of course America did, that is until Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. What a silly question to ask!"
Reporter: "One follow up question, Senator, if I may?"
Senator Booker: "Of course, go ahead. I appreciate being candid with members of the Fourth Estate like yourself and the American public at large."
Reporter: "Is Israel committing genocide in Gaza?"
Senator Booker: "That's becoming one of those new litmus tests that we said we would never do as a party."

It was a head shot...
...but he missed. That's my guess. No way he was trying for a neck shot. I still wonder where they found the slug. I kinda doubt a neck would have stopped it.
