Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) said Sunday about the “this week” of ABC that President Donald Trump was “violating the fundamental rights of people to punish them.”
Partial transcription as follows:
Stephanopoulos: Dress Jon Karl’s article on the president’s remuneration campaign, promised to be the duration of the remuneration of the campaign. We are seeing thesis movements against universities. We are seeing these movements against law firms. You took the Senate’s floor to protest. What should these firms of lawyers and universities do?
Booker: Well, first of all, you are calling remuneration, but it’s something much worse than that. If you look around the world, from Viktor Orban, to Vladimir Putin, this is not what democratic leaders do. This is really a violation of our constitutional principles, which is using that power of that office, not to advance the noble causes that could help the American people, Whiteher with whom I do not agree or not, that is what a tea is wheat, do what a tea. Things are most likely. Things. Things. What this president is doing is violating our constitutional principles, violating the fundamental rights of people to punish them, to carry out their own remuneration plan.
You know, John F. Kennedy said: “Don’t ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Donald Trump now says: Don’t ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for Donald Trump to make peace. He is trying to hurt people, make him more to him and sacrifice tribute to not violate the constitution and hurt them economically. This is something that should not be just about a group of law firms. This is something that should ultimately be about Americans.
And every American at this time should be sitting: I don’t care if you are a republican, democrat or independent, and should ask you, when is it enough? When has my line crossed when it comes to my love for this country? Is it bad that you are imposing the largest tax on Americans that I have seen through these rates, which are taxes on Americans? Is that enough? Is it enough when the medical care of dozens of millions of Americans, disabled children or in other places threatens? Is that enough? Is that to cross my line? Or will you pay your tax cuts?
