Yet another example where you are completely wrong.



Yeah WK, Melania would never get a decent cut or manicure again. Then, there is always the likelihood that whoever did Trump's hair transplant is gay and had he said the wrong thing, he might have ended up looking like a bald, bearded Orange Moses.

I know it grips your ass that what I said about Trump is true. You you are left with gibberish.

How is this a smear campaign? I never said anything whatsoever negative about him being gay, I don't see him being gay as a bad thing in any way and I would hate for his homosexuality to be seen by anyone as a reason not to vote for him. You people must be making some bigoted assumptions.

Fake Election News is starting early -- way too early. Is he smeared on FB yet? I imagine the Russian Troll Factory is ramping up and adding staff.

Booker told The Philadelphia Inquirer, “I’m heterosexual.” He added, “Every candidate should run on their authentic self, tell their truth, and more importantly, or mostly importantly, talk about their vision for the country.”

The thread should be whether a single man can be elected. The last bachelor elected to the White House was Grover Cleveland in 1886.

It is a smear campaign when he isn't gay.

I'm aware that there are a lot more progressive whites than black males in the dem party so I wonder how this is going to affect Cory's chances in the primaries.
A friend of mine was at a meeting when she saw a business acquaintance. They stopped to talk when my friend's acquaintance introduced her boyfriend, Cory Booker.

For me, his sexuality doesn’t matter one way or the other...when all is said and done he doesn’t have a chance, for now he projects a lot of window dressing, he’ll be going down fast.

No, you get to reference poorly done videos by simple-minded, RWNJs. #WALDOKITTYFAIL

Jussie Smollett going off the rails is going to haunt Booker big time. I don't see how he can lash out against Trump and not be compared to that crazy hater Smollett.
But crazy is the new black in the dem party so maybe it will all be lost in the confusion and hysterics.
