Cory Booker on Schumer Amid Midterms: ‘The Democratic Party Desperately Needs New Leadership’

RUSH EXCERPT:
BOOKER: "The party. I am telling people left and right, we are five months out from election. What is going to make the Republicans gleeful is if we're talking about each other in the Democratic Party and not talking about the realities that Americans are facing. I am tired of all this machination about politics. We are in a crisis right now. Millions of Americans losing their health insurance, their costs skyrocketing. I liked to more and more new jersey who are barely staying afloat. Enough of normal party politics. We need to focus on the people and the Democratic Party desperately needs new leadership. And that‘s what‘s exciting me about this cycle. . it‘s not only new leaders emerging, but a new vision for our party and well be sure that I‘m going to be talking about what our party needs to do to change, and nwhat our party needs to go. And the biggest issue for me, and I think what makes me frustrated with politics as usual, is the massive corruption going on in n l three branches from a Supreme Court that‘s taking unlimited gifts from billionaires who have interest in matters before them to Congress people trading stocks and accepting corporate cash and corporate PAC money to a president who is setting records for being the greatest grifter in chief we have ever seen. We ed real change that engenders trust again in American n politics, but more importantly, in the people that are standing up right now and we need change."
