Yeah, I’ve got some very mixed feelings about Booker two. Moreover, if this is the beginning and end of his plans, I don’t think it’s going to accomplish damn thing, because we are never going to guilt Republicans into being better people.
That all being said, I can’t deny that it’s an impressive physical sacrifice if nothing else, and if watching him stand up there so long with his voice breaking and getting emotional and worn down guilts moderate Democratic lawmakers into being less useless the next time something they could actually filibuster comes up it might be the beginning of what needs to happen.
Either way, it’s better than literally nothing, and at this point I’ll take anything.
