Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) is wasting no time plotting his political comeback, launching a national book tour for his memoir "Stand" as Democrats scramble to find anyone who can challenge the Trump-Vance juggernaut in 2028.

The New Jersey Democrat will kick off his obvious presidential audition with a March 22 event at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, joining what's becoming a clown car parade of failed Democratic leaders trying to rehabilitate their images through book deals.

Remember, this is the same Cory Booker who flamed out spectacularly in the 2020 Democratic primary, failing to gain traction despite his "Spartacus" theatrics during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings. Now he's back for another helping of humiliation.

Democrats Already in Panic Mode

What does it tell you about the state of the Democratic Party that they're already launching 2028 campaigns just 10 days into Trump's second term? While President Trump is busy delivering on his America First agenda with mass deportations and government efficiency reforms, Democrats are focused on book sales and virtue signaling.

Booker joins other potential Democratic contenders who are using the tired playbook of writing memoirs to stay relevant. It's the same strategy that failed them in 2024 when Trump demolished their woke agenda at the ballot box.

"The American people rejected the radical left's extremism once, and they'll do it again in 2028," said one Trump administration source. "These book tours are just desperate attempts to stay in the spotlight."

The timing couldn't be more tone-deaf. As Trump works to secure the border and restore American energy dominance, Booker is planning feel-good book signings for coastal elites who still can't accept that their radical ideology was thoroughly rejected by working Americans.

Patriots should view this book tour for exactly what it is: the opening salvo of another doomed Democratic presidential campaign. The question isn't whether Booker can win in 2028 – it's whether the Democratic Party will still exist as a credible political force after four more years of Trump's winning agenda.

Of course he is! These career politicians can't help themselves - they see an opportunity to cash in and they take it. The book tour 'grift' is exactly right, it's the oldest trick in the political playbook.

Same playbook every time - book deal, speaking fees, build that war chest early. So predictable!

2028? Biden isn't even done with his term and they're already positioning for the next cycle. Shows you where their priorities really are - not governing, just campaigning.

My liberal neighbor was going on and on about Booker's 'inspiring message' at some event last month. Now I see what was really happening - he was already in campaign mode!

Smart move financially but terrible optics. Americans are struggling with inflation and he's already fundraising for an election 4 years away?

Has anyone actually read his previous books? I'm genuinely curious if there's any substance or if it's just the usual political memoir fluff designed to boost name recognition.

Tried reading his last one - typical politician autobiography, lots of feel-good stories but light on actual policy details.
