    Sen. Cory Booker announced Monday he is dropping out of the race for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

    In an email to his supporters, Booker cited a number of reasons: most notably, a lack of money to continue.

    "Our campaign has reached the point where we need more money to scale up and continue building a campaign that can win — money we don't have, and money that is harder to raise because I won't be on the next debate stage and because the urgent business of impeachment will rightly be keeping me in Washington," Booker wrote.

    Now that Booker is gone, there is only one gay guy left in the race.

    He never got any traction but he definitely showed me more during his campaign than I’d seen before. I’m sure he’s on Biden's short list for a VP.

    Rosario Dawson's "boyfriend." I'm sure the reports of their break up are... imminent.

    Democrats, what's up with only spending on the old white guys? (Fauxcahantus is also old, and white, and if you put her in certain clothing, still resembles a prepubescent boy)

    Yes, there is not much diversity left among the DP's remaining candidates, but if the NZ national rugby team can be called the All Blacks - why not the DP?



    If gender is just a state of mind why not race? Perez should consult Elizabeth Warren about sources and methods.

    Pete is not old and Bernie is a Jew. Must be weird for republicans to see a Jewish presidential candidate huh? All the RW love for Israel, yet they don’t elect Jews very often. Sad!

    Trump does have a sense of humor, lol. I only caught a little of his Ohio rally the other night, but it had some funny zingers too. I like a sense of humor.

    It is weird seeing a Jew running for president......

    .....in the Democratic party.

    Ilhan Omar: "Bernie Sanders has hypnotized the world."

    Rashida Tlaib: "There's a kind of calming feeling, I always tell folks, when I think of Bernie Sanders' heart attack."

    If Bernie's religion is made front and center, that's going to revive some unnecessary talking points by certain sects of people in the country. These sects, BTW I despise wholeheartedly. We all know who they are.

    Hey - A red, white and blue tiki torch would make a great symbol for the New Democratic Party, if not The Squad.

    Did you hear Ilhan Omar won StopAntisemitism.org's 2019 Anti-Semite of the Year award? That's no joke...
