Booker gets called out while campaigning in SC about his acceptance of $300k from big pharma. Promptly tells the gentleman that it’s fake news and for him to check Politifact.

Only problem is Politifact confirms he accepted the $300k.

Hahahah

quote:

”God bless you, and I thank you for asking the question because everything you said there is not true,” Booker replied.

“Literally go to Politifact, this is the group from the Washington Post … there is so much of this mess out there on the internet, and it is not true. So look at Politifact, and literally google an article called The Stupid War on Cory Booker.”

A Politifact fact check article confirms Booker has taken more than $300,000 from Big Pharma. He claimed that “everything” the young man said is “not true,” but the website Booker directed the man to confirms that Booker is incorrect. Politifact is also run by Poynter, not WaPo, as Booker said.

He knew that was a bullshite response, he just needed to give a response that would keep people guessing until the truth was found out. He's like a Project Manager bullshiting the midst of a rough Project.

I believe a key criteria for advancement is the ability to bullshite your way through a meeting when you don't know what is going on so you can go figure it out before the next meeting.

Agreed. I am still semi-famous at NASA for my response at the end of a tortuous presentation followed by endless questions = “i’m sorry mr Chamberlain. I’ve already told you more than I know about this project.”

Corey booker voted against the bill that would have allowed cheaper drugs from Canada


Who would have guessed that US pharma was donating to him?
