Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Simply admitting it does not mean you don't have to correct. This was a fillibuster in name only, no bill was protested. This is theatrical at best.

It was performative nonsense, as per usual of the democrats.

The only thing it did was take the record from a segregationist.

Of course, the Dems are experts at theater.
