Cory Booker’s ‘Spartacus moment’: Dumbest grandstanding fail of all time?
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., the self-proclaimed “Spartacus” of the United States Senate, is grandstanding like he wants to run for president in 2020. Probably because he wants to run for president in 2020.
Taking advantage of the television cameras present at Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation hearing Thursday morning, Booker declared that he would violate Senate rules to release “damning” confidential documents that would derail Kavanaugh’s confirmation. He told his Senate colleagues that he understood there would be consequences for releasing “committee confidential” documents that are not supposed to be made public, as he cast himself as a hero. He characterized his decision to release the documents anyway as an act of “civil disobedience.”
“I knowingly violated the rules that were put forth,” Booker told Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa. “If Sen. Cornyn believes I violated Senate rules, I openly invite and accept the consequences of my team releasing that email right now.”
“This is about the closest I’ll probably ever have in my life to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment,” he added
But Cory Booker can’t even pull off grandstanding properly.
As it turns out, the documents “Spartacus” threatened to release at risk of expulsion from the U.S. Senate were already cleared for release Wednesday night, Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, tweeted.
So Cory Booker asked to release these documents, the documents were cleared last night, and then Booker made a big show of “civil disobedience” at the Senate hearing Tuesday after he knew the documents he was threatening to release were already cleared for release.

Absolutely hilarious! While claiming to be be "Spartacus", he shows he is a lying Spart Ass!
Clearly, whomever wrote this piece, seems to have limited brainpower/mental faculties/is flat out lazy....and the evidence is right in the piece's title.
'Dumbest grandstanding fail of all time?'
How many billions of grandstanding events in history have there been? On how many levels?
How the 'f' could anyone possibly know what is the worst of all of these? So why ask such an incredibly, stupid-sounding question.
This is like - though worse then - when Trump says he is the 'best in history...' at this or that...when clearly he has not a clue and could not ever know with many of them.
For his sake, I hope he was just pandering to the educational/intellectual level of average Trump supporters...whom we know is generally not great.

There is nothing wrong with not being bright. The problem arises when you believe you ARE bright when you clearly are not.
BTW, are this guy's actions 'grandstanding'? Maybe they are - but I could care less one way or the other. What matters is the data.
Only an ignoramus ignores data because the person who released the data's motives are suspect. It's the data that counts...sheesh.
'Oh look...here is the data for a cure to skin cancer!!!'
'Oh forget it...the guy releasing it was grandstanding.'
Sheesh Trumpbots? Try to rise above your average IQ's...not unknowingly advertise what they actually are.

his 2020 bid self destructed yesterday.So, we should completely ignore the fact that he learned several hours earlier that the documents were released thanks to the Republicans and still acted lout his gladiator moment and didn't think that this would be the biggest story, hilarious story that is, that he is nothing but a horse's ass.Cory Booker’s ‘Spartacus moment’: Dumbest grandstanding fail of all time?

I agree with an earlier poster, "Run for President" booker. We need the comical aversion.
If that's true it's just more nails in the Democrat coffin. More evidence of Democrat implosion.He will never live this down.
Are you serious? He’s just the new front runner for the presidency on the Democrat side.
Gomer Pyle would be a better candidate.
If most Trump supporters are "uneducated", that means, for the most part, they are unindoctrinated, unbrainwashed, and not MISeducated.
“This is about the closest I’ll probably ever have in my life to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment,” he added
And we all remember what happened to Spartacus.
They’re pathetic people.Seriously, why are liberals ok with Booker saying he is a hero and will jeopardize being kicked out of the senate when he KNEW the emails had been declassified?
That’s some pathetic shit.
That was actually a pretty good quote from Marco.Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) reacted to Booker's display Friday morning on Fox News by giving his colleague some friendly advice.
"If you're gonna use a document to disqualify a nominee, read it," Graham suggested. "If you read the damn thing," he added, you'll see that Kavanaugh "was against racial profiling."
On this day in 71 B.C. the Thracian gladiator Spartacus was put to death by Marcus Licinius Crassus for disclosing confidential scrolls. When informed days later that in fact the Roman Senate had already publicly released the scrolls, Crassus replied “Oh, ok, my bad”. - Marco Rubio
“You know... I knew Spartacus.” - Orrin Hatch
Are you shocked? I’m notSeriously, why are liberals ok with Booker saying he is a hero and will jeopardize being kicked out of the senate when he KNEW the emails had been declassified?
That’s some pathetic shit.
Here's a video of him admitting that his seat wasn't at risk at all anyway.when it all becomes about the spectacle of cory booker, you think to yourself: this guy's a real phony!
