Cory Booker admits he’s keeping a close eye on Biden: ‘Is he gonna doze off on me?’

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) admitted this week he’s been closely monitoring President Biden as polls show growing concern among voters about the commander-in-chief’s advanced age.

“I’m a human being. When I’m hanging out, I’m looking close,” Booker quipped Tuesday on Stephen A. Smith’s FanDuel show. “Is he gonna doze off on me? I’m sorry, I’m human. I want to see if this guy can roll with me.”

The Garden State senator, who competed with Biden in 2020 for the Democratic presidential nomination, went on to insist that he’s been satisfied with Biden’s capabilities after viewing them up close.

“I’ve sat up in the Oval Office and he’s known more about facts than people on his staff does,” Booker added, though he insinuated that the 80-year-old president would lose to him in a push-up contest.

ESPN personality Smith had grilled Booker on Biden’s age, arguing that the “Democratic Party should be ashamed of themselves” for relying on the octogenarian to keep former President Donald Trump from regaining the White House next year.
